Question

1. match the illustrations with the types of mountains.

folding
dome
fault - block

Explanation:

• Dome mountains: Formed when magma pushes up the overlying rock layers but doesn't erupt. The illustration with the upward - pushing magma (first image) matches this as the rock layers are arched upwards without faulting or intense folding.
• Fault - block mountains: Created due to tensional forces that cause blocks of the Earth's crust to move up or down along faults. The second illustration shows distinct blocks of the crust separated by faults, which is characteristic of fault - block mountains.
• Folding mountains: Formed when compressional forces cause rock layers to bend and fold. The third illustration, which shows rock layers being compressed and folded, is consistent with the formation mechanism of folding mountains.

Answer:

First image: dome; Second image: fault - block; Third image: folding.
