Answer 1

The Aravali mountain ranges are an example of old fold mountains.

Answer - option (a)

Explanation:

• Fold mountains like the Himalayas are known to be formed due to the pressure that is exerted on the tectonic plates from two sides which results in the formation of mountains.
• Although Aravali mountain range is a fold mountain, it has its origin long before the Himalayas and the mountains we see today are basically the eroded version of fold mountains.
• These mountains are often known as residual mountains due to the decreased height as a result of erosion taking place for a long period of time.
