(A) The Himalayas
Explanation:
- Himalayas are continental folding mountains arising from convergent plates boundaries. Geosyncline (deep hollow relief) was present at an early stage. It then collided with the northern Eurasian plate.
- Because of the collision, the sedimentary rocks that were formed up in the Tethys geosyncline, were folded into the western Asian and Himalayan mountain systems.
- Because of the lateral compressive force triggered by the convergence & collision of African & Eurasian Indian plates, geosynclinal sediment from Tethys Sea had collided into Himalayan & Alpine mountain range during the Cenozoic era.
