Question

differentiate between recidualdual mountain and volcanic mountain.atleast three points on each​

Answer 1

Answer:

• Residual mountains are those mountains which have been eroded by the agents of degradation such as winds, rain, frost and running water. The hard rocks that are left behind are called residual mountains. The Sierras of central Spain and Mesas of USA are some examples of residual mountains (source 2)

• Mountains are formed when 2 continental plates converge, ie push up against each other. Italy was part of the African Plate which pushed north into Southern Europe (and is still doing so.) Because continental plates are too light to subduct, they keep pushing. The rock caught between these 2 plates is squeezed and having nowhere else to go, is pushed sideways and up. Cut through one and you would find that it is solid rock all the way through.
• Also most volcanoes have a crater, a circular depression or hole in the top of the volcano. Mountains do not. They have a peak at the summit. Also mountains do not have lava lakes which are exactly what the name suggests, lakes of lava. (once magma breaks through into the open, it is called lava). Neither do mountains emit steam or gases from fumaroles (cracks in the crater, which can be very small when the volcano is quiet.)
