A young fold mountain range is generally between 10 and 25 million years old while an old fold mountain range can be over 200 million years old. Old fold mountains are usually lower elevation and can appear more like rolling hills such as the Appalachians.

Answer:

----------------------------------

Explanation:

Answer:  

Fold mountains are mountain that are mainly formed by the effects of folding on layers within the upper part of the Earth's crust. Before either plate tectonic theory developed, or the internal architecture of thrust belts became well understood, the term was used for most mountain belts, such as the Himalayas. The term is still fairly common in physical geography literature but has otherwise generally fallen out of use except as described below.
