Question

which option shows the correct order of mountains from the smallest grouping to the largest grouping?
peak, range, belt, system
peak, system, range, belt
range, peak, system, belt
peak, range, system, belt

Explanation:

To determine the correct order, we recall the hierarchy of mountain groupings: A peak is a single mountain top (smallest). A range is a group of peaks. A system is a group of ranges. A belt (mountain belt) is a large group of systems (largest). So the order from smallest to largest is peak, range, system, belt.

Answer:

D. peak, range, system, belt (assuming the last option is labeled D; if the original options had labels like A - D with the last being peak, range, system, belt, then the answer is that option. If the options were unlabeled but the last one is "peak, range, system, belt", then the answer is that sequence.)
