Answer:
A mountain is a large landform that rises above the surrounding land in a limited area, usually in the form of a peak. A mountain is generally steeper than a hill. ]
Mountains are formed through tectonic forces or volcanism. These forces can locally raise the surface of the earth.
Explanation:
According to the U.S. Geological Survey, there is no official difference between hills and mountains. Hills are easier to climb than mountains. They are less steep and not as high. But, like a mountain, a hill will usually have an obvious summit, which is its highest point.
