 ______ is created by the collision of convergent plate boundaries.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Mountain building.

  • Mountain building results from a variety of geological processes. The largest mountain ranges form over millions of years as tectonic plates collide, or as one tectonic plate over-rides another plate.
  • The longest mountain ranges on land result from the collision of continents, for instance, the Himalayas due to the ramming of the Indian subcontinent into Asia.
