Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mountain ranges are formed by tectonic activity at convergent plate boundaries, where two plates are colliding and pushing against each other. Transform plate boundaries can also cause some uplift and formation of mountain ranges, but it is not their primary cause. Hot spots can cause volcanoes to form, but not necessarily mountain ranges. Divergent plate boundaries, on the other hand, are where two plates are moving away from each other, which typically results in the formation of mid-ocean ridges, not mountain ranges.
