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. The Cape Fold Mountains of South Africa, above, were created as the ancient Falklands Plateau crashed into the African plate.

If there is any difference in density between the plates along a convergent margin, the denser plate will submerge under the lighter one. These zones are called subduction zones. Ocean trenches are developed in subduction zones. The Challeger Deep in Pacific Ocean is an example.
