Mountain Building


Mountains are formed  when two continental crust are pushed together, also known as the convergent boundary. Convergent boundary helps to push two plates together which creates mountains. Dome is formed by magma pushing up from underneath the mantle. Mantle is a layer between the crust and the outer core. 



Mantle is liquid layer part of inner earth and creates magma. Folded are who land pushed together, created because of convergent boundary. Fault blocks are when pressure pull rocks apart and some faults goes up and some faults go down. After volcano explode and die they are no longer active also can be described as ring of fire. Volcano fire comes from the liquid magma made out of malted rock.
