Answer 2

Most of us can picture mountains in our minds, but how is a mountain really defined?

In general, a mountain is a landform that has some kind of significant prominence or distinction compared to the surrounding land, usually in the shape of a peak. Mountains are considered to be steeper, taller, and more prominent than hills. Mountains can rise individually, but usually form in a series of mountains called a mountain range. But what makes a mountain a mountain? And what makes a hill a hill?

Unfortunately, there is no clear answer to that question - there is no universally accepted definition. Most commonly, prominence is used to define mountains. Some authorities consider anything above 300 meters (1000 ft) to be a mountain, while others make the borderline 600 meters (2000 ft).

Characteristics of Mountains

So even though there does not seem to be a clear-cut minimum for the height of a piece of land to be called a mountain, there are several characteristics to consider.

Mountains are prominent landforms that have significant heights above sea level and/or the surrounding land. They are steeper than hills. A mountain or mountain range usually has a peak, which is a pointed top. Mountains have different climatesthan land at sea level and nearby flat land. Climate is the weather over an extended time period for a specific area. The climate of mountains tends to include colder weather, wetter weather, and thinner air. Thin air refers to the fact that at the higher altitudes of a mountain there is less oxygen to breathe. Also, mountains generally have less hospitable conditions for plants and animals. This leads to quite different evolutionary adaptations for those plants and animals that make higher elevations their home.
