Mountain ranges are formed by a variety of geological processes, but most of the significant ones on Earth are the result of plate tectonics. Individual mountains within the same mountain range do not necessarily have the same geologic structure or petrology.
Explanation:
As per the theory of isostasy each and every high and heavy weighted object has same amount of portion beneath it. So, the mountains found in the earth will also have highest and greatest density. As per the geo syncline theory sediments get deosited in the depression and contraction and tensional forces work on it from two sides and causes mountain building. Therefore greatest density with proper height and balance is required for mountain building.
