Which is the outermost range of the Himalayas?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Shiwalik

The Himalayas are divided into broad parallel ranges. The Shiwalik, also called the Outer Himalaya, lies at the southernmost and lowest edge of this system, so it is the outermost range. It is formed mainly from relatively unconsolidated sediments and has valleys such as the duns between parts of the range. Its position, rather than its height alone, identifies it as the outer belt.

Option A is correct because Shiwalik means the Outer Himalaya. Himadri is the Great or Inner Himalaya and is the highest, northernmost major range. Himachal, or the Lesser Himalaya, lies between Himadri and Shiwalik. Karakoram is a separate high mountain system farther north and is not the outermost Himalayan range. Therefore the supplied answer and explanation are accurate.
