Question

The landform features formed as a result of folding are known as _________.

  1. Fold mountains    
  2. Continental crust    
  3. Southern mountains    
  4. Plateau    

The correct answer is: Fold mountains


    The landform features formed as a result of folding are known as fold mountains. These are formed when two tectonic plates collide, causing rock formations and the crust to lift and fold.
