Question

define fold mountain, residual mountain, block mountain​

Answer 1

Answer:

residual mountains are mountain got eroded by water, wind etc.

Block mountains are formed due to faulting. Fold Mountains are formed when two tectonic plates move towards each other leading to the folding of the layers of the Earth. Block Mountains are formed when the two tectonic plates move away from each other causing cracks on the surface of the Earth.

Answer 2

When plates collide or undergo subduction (that is – ride one over another), the plates tend to buckle and fold, forming mountains. Most of the major continental mountain ranges are associated with thrusting and folding or orogenesis. Examples are the Balkan Mountains, the Jura and the Zagros mountains.
