PLEASE HELP!!!!! (PICK THE RIGHT ANSWER!!!!!)

Respuesta :

Answer is: D. They push against each other to form folded mountain ranges.

Accounding to plate tectonics, collision between two continental plates crunches and folds the rock at the boundary, leading to the formation of mountains and mountain ranges.

For example, Himalayas were formed by the collision of the Indian and Eurasian Plates. That is happened about 40 to 50 million years ago.

The Answer is D
