• Where are Fold Mountains primarily distributed?


  Along plate margins where continental crust is being uplifted
• What type of plate margins are associated with the formation of Fold Mountains?


  Destructive margins and collision margins
• Which mountain range is an example of Fold Mountains formed at collision margins?


  The Himalayas
• What is the relationship between ocean trenches and subduction zones?


  Ocean trenches are located at subduction zones where oceanic crust descends below continental crust
• What is the "Pacific Ring of Fire" known for?


  It is known for its ocean trenches and volcanic activity
• What are some examples of young Fold Mountains?


  The Himalayas, Rockies, Andes, and Alps
• How do Ocean Trenches relate to the ocean's depth?


  They form some of the deepest parts of the ocean
• What geological processes contribute to the formation of Ocean Trenches?


  Subduction and slab pull
• What happens when both Fold Mountains and Ocean Trenches occur in the same location?


  They are associated with subduction and destructive plate margins
• What occurs when Fold Mountains are found by themselves?


  They are in areas where collision is taking place
• What are the main characteristics of Fold Mountains and Ocean Trenches?


  • Fold Mountains: Formed by the collision of tectonic plates
  • Ocean Trenches: Formed at subduction zones
  • Both result from plates moving towards each other
