Answer:

Fold mountains - Fold mountains are formed when two plates run into each other or collide. The force of the two plates running into each other causes the Earth's crust to crumple and fold. Many of the world's great mountain ranges are fold mountains including the Andes, Himalayas, and the Rockies.

Fault-block mountains - Fault-block mountains are formed along faults where some large blocks of rock are forced upwards while others are forced down.  The Sierra Nevada Mountains in the western United States are fault-block mountains
