2. Which mountains form when two continental
plates collide?
Click on the correct image below
Folded mountains like the
Himalayas, Appalachian, or Alps
Volcanic Mountains like Hawaii
3. Try Again!
This is a volcano and is
formed over hot spots,
convergent boundaries, and
divergent boundaries
5. Which mountains form when two ocean
plates collide?
Click on the correct image below
A dome mountain like the
Black Hills or Adirondack
An Island Arc like the
Philippines, Japan, or Aleutian
Islands
6. Try Again!
These are dome
mountains and form
when magma pushes up
layers of rock without
erupting onto the surface.
These mountains form
wherever there is
volcanic activity.
8. Which mountain forms when a
continental and oceanic plate
collide?
Click on the correct image below
A Coastal Mountain like the
Cascade Mountain Range
Folded mountains like the
Himalayas, Appalachian, or
Alps
11. Which mountain is formed
when sections of rock are
uplifted?
Click on the correct image below
Fault-block mountain like the
Teton’s or Sierra Nevada's
A volcano like Mt. Vesuvius
12. Try Again!
This is a volcano and
is formed over hot
spots, convergent
boundaries, and
divergent boundaries
13. Congratulations
!
Fault block mountains
form at normal faults
where chunks of rock
are pushed up along
fault lines creating
mountains like the
Sierra Nevada’s or
Teton Mountain Range
14. Which type of mountains
form over a hot spot?
Click on the correct image below
A volcano like Hawaii or
Yellowstone
A dome mountain like the
Black Hills or Adirondack Mts.
15. Try Again!
These are dome
mountains and form
when magma pushes up
layers of rock without
erupting onto the
surface. These
mountains form
wherever there is
volcanic activity.
16. Congratulations!
Volcanic activity is
sometimes caused by hot
spots. These areas are
thought to exist because of
unusually hot places in the
mantle that melt the crust
above, creating areas of
volcanic activity like
Yellowstone, Hawaii, and
about 40 other locations
around the globe.
17. Which mountain form when
two ocean plates diverge?
Click on the correct image below
Folded mountains like the
Himalayas, Rockies or
Appalachian
Under water volcanoes like
the Mid-Atlantic Ridge
18. Try Again!
Folded mountains like
the Himalayas and
Appalachian are
formed where two
continental plates
converge or collide
19. Congratulations!
Submarine or underwater
volcanoes like the midocean ridge form where two
ocean plates are separating.
New ocean crust is formed
in these areas. The MidAtlantic Ridge runs down
the center of the Atlantic
ocean and is the longest
mountain chain in the world.
