Answer:
In later years Willis proposed a first version of plate tectonics to explain mountain formation processes - the Atlantic Ocean was formed when a "bubble" of magma pushed apart the American and European continents, along the borders the layers of rocks were compressed and folded up - the Appalachian Mountains formed.

The origin of mountains (orogenesis) occurs after tectonic movements make rock layers fold and overlap. These lithospheric plates continuously move and whenever they bump into each other, they form mountain chains. about 55 million years ago
The world's tallest mountain ranges form when pieces of Earth's crust—called plates—smash against each other in a process called plate tectonics, and buckle up like the hood of a car in a head-on collision. The Himalaya in Asia formed from one such massive wreck that started about 55 million years ago.
