what are fold mountains and how they are formed?

  • Fold mountains are formed where two or more of Earth's tectonic plates are pushed together towards each other leading to the folding of the layers of the Earth.
  • The up folds are known as anticlines and the down folds are known as synclines.
  • At these colliding, compressing boundaries, rocks and debris are warped and folded into rocky outcrops, hills, mountains, and entire mountain ranges.
  • this process of formation of fold mountains is called orogeny.

therefore it is true that fold mountains are formed due to stress
