hi!
plz mark the brainliest!
The Himalayas were formed as a result of the collision between the Indian Plate and Eurasian Plate. Read the description given below:
Because of the impact of convectional currents, the crust was split into many pieces. The Indo–Australian plate got separated from the Gondwanaland and drifted towards the north.
As it drifted towards the north, it collided with the Eurasian plate. As a result of this collision, the sedimentary rocks which were settled in the large-scale depression in the Earth’s crust called Tethys were folded and formed the Himalayas.
hope it helps!
