The five types of mountains include:

1). Fold Mountains

2). Volcanic Mountains

3). Dome Mountains

4). Fault-block Mountains

5). Plateau Mountains.

Explanation:

  • Fold mountains are described as the types of mountains that are formed through the colliding of two tectonic plates of the Earth together.
  • Volcanic mountains are formed when the molten rock erupts from the deep earth and accumulates on itself.
  • Dome Mountains are formed when the hot molten magma comes forward through the Earth's mantle into its crust which forces the sedimentary rocks lying over it to cause a 'dome' shape.
  • Fault-block mountains are created due to the motion of huge crustal blocks when the pressures in the crust of the Earth tow it apart.
  • Plateau mountains are formed due to the erosion of glaciers lying among the mountain ranges.
