millions of years ago, the indian plate began pushing gradually towards the eurasian plate. the land above started rising in various patterns. which physical feature most likely resulted from such a motion?
fault block mountain with waves, twists, and turns
fault block mountain with jagged, rough edges
fold mountain with waves, twists, and turns
fold mountain with jagged, rough edges

Explanation:

When two tectonic plates (here the Indian and Eurasian plates) collide and push against each other (convergent boundary), the force causes the rock layers to bend, fold, and deform. Fold mountains are formed due to such compressional forces. Fault - block mountains are formed due to tensional forces that cause blocks of the Earth's crust to move up or down along faults. Since the motion here is a pushing (compression) motion, it is related to fold mountains. Also, during the folding process, the rock layers can form waves, twists, and turns as they are compressed and deformed.

Answer:

Fold mountain with waves, twists, and turns
