Question

describe how the himalayas were formed.


​

Answer 1

$answer$

This immense mountain range began to form between 40 and 50 million years ago, when two large landmasses, India and Eurasia, driven by plate movement, collided. Because both these continental landmasses have about the same rock density, one plate could not be subducted under the other.

Answer 2

$answer$

The Himalayas were formed as a result of the collision between the Indian Plate and 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.
