Question

in wegeners view, what caused mountain ranges to form?
volcanoes
earth shrinking
meteorite impacts
continents colliding

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Wegener's theory of continental drift proposed that continents move and collide, which leads to the formation of mountain ranges (e.g., the Himalayas from the collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates). Volcanoes form landforms but not major mountain ranges via Wegener's view. Earth shrinking and meteorite impacts are not part of his theory for mountain formation.

Answer:

D. continents colliding
