Answer:
a) The two types of mountains are:
1) Fold Mountains
2) Block Mountains
Block mountains are formed when faults or cracks in the earth's crust force some materials or blocks of rock up and others down. Instead of the earth folding over, the earth's crust fractures (pulls apart). It breaks up into blocks or chunks. Often fault-block mountains have a steep front side and a sloping back side.
b) The Earth orbits the sun once every 365 days and rotates about its axis once every 24 hours. Day and night are due to the Earth rotating on its axis, not its orbiting around the sun.
Please mention the c) question properly as there is no image
