Answer:
Fold mountains are created where two or more of Earth’s tectonic plates are pushed together, often at regions known as convergent plate boundaries and continental collision zones. At these boundaries, rocks are folded into hills and mountains. Fold mountains are created through a process called orogeny. It takes millions of years to create a fold mountain. The Cape Fold Mountains of South Africa, were created as the ancient Falklands Plateau crashed into the African plate.
