The formation of the Himalayas is mainly associated with which process?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Collision of plates

The correct answer is A, collision of plates. The Himalayas formed when the northward-moving Indian tectonic plate collided with the Eurasian Plate. The collision compressed and folded layers of sedimentary rocks that had accumulated in the former Tethys Sea, producing a young fold mountain system. The process is continuing, which is why the Himalayan region remains tectonically active and experiences earthquakes. River deposition builds plains and deltas, while sea waves and desert winds mainly modify coastal or arid surfaces; none created the Himalayan range.
