Question

which kind of force is responsible for the formation of folds find out the names given to uplifted and depressed parts.​

Answer 1

Answer:

I have two answers

1. Compressive forces generate folding and faulting as a consequence of shortening. Compressive forces are common along convergent plate boundaries resulting in mountain ranges.

2. The forces responsible for formation of fold mountains are called orogenic movements. The term orogenic has derived from a Greek word meaning mountain building. These forces act at tangent to the surface of the earth and are primarily a result of plate tectonics.
