Question

How are they major mountaines belts distributed on the map?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Most mountains and mountain ranges are parts of mountain belts that have formed where two lithospheric plates have converged and where, in most cases, they continue to converge. In effect, many mountain belts mark the boundaries of lithospheric plates, and these boundaries in turn intersect other such boundaries. Consequently, there exist very long mountain systems where a series of convergent plate boundaries continue from one to the next. A nearly continuous chain of volcanoes and mountain ranges surrounds most of the Pacific basin—the so-called Circum-Pacific System. A second nearly continuous chain of mountains can be traced from Morocco in North Africa through Europe, then across Turkey and Iran through the Himalayas to Southeast Asia; this chain, the Alpine-Himalayan (or Tethyan) System, has formed where the African, Arabian, and Indian plates have collided with the Eurasian Plate. Nearly all mountain ranges on the Earth can be included in one of these two major systems and most that cannot are residual mountains, which originated from ancient continental collisions that occurred hundreds of millions of years ago.
