Most mountains formed from Earth's tectonic plates smashing together. Below the ground, Earth's crust is made up of multiple tectonic plates. The result of these tectonic plates crumpling is huge slabs of rock being pushed up into the air.

Answer:

Mountains are formed after the dryness of volcanoes. These processes are associated with large-scale movements of the Earth's crust (tectonic plates). Folding, faulting, volcanic activity, igneous intrusion and metamorphism can all be parts of the orogenic process of mountain building.

Explanation:

When sediments deposited on a seabed are subjected to compression, they are gradually squeezed and folded, after which they form huge chains of mountains called fold mountains. Sometimes, because of compressional forces the, horizontal layers of rocks break down into several pieces called blocks.
