Fold Mountains
Fold mountains are formed when two tectonic
plates push together at the border. The extreme
pressure folds the edges of the tectonic plates
upwards into folds. A fold mountain can have
more than one type of fold It can show both
anticline and syncline. Antidine fold has the
oldest rock in the centre, while a syncline is U
shaped with the youngest rock in the centre
(Fig. 3). However, fold mountains form over
millions of years, as tectonic plates move only a
few centimetres a year. Young fold mountains,
like the Himalayas in Asia and the Alps in
Europe, have high elevation, sharp peaks and
steep slopes Over the years, the mountains are
worn down by forces of wind and water, and
become old fold mountains with low elevation
and rounded peaks. For example, the Aravallis
in India, the Appalachians in North America
and the Urals in Europe
