GENERAL KNOWLEDGE

Detailed explanation-1: -A mountain is a large landform that rises above the surrounding land in a limited area, usually in the form of a peak. A mountain is generally considered to be steeper than a hill. Mountains are formed through tectonic forces or volcanism.

Detailed explanation-2: -They usually have steep, sloping sides and sharp or rounded ridges, and a high point, called a peak or summit. Most geologists classify a mountain as a landform that rises at least 1, 000 feet (300 meters) or more above its surrounding area. A mountain range is a series or chain of mountains that are close together.

Detailed explanation-3: -Mountains are major landforms with higher elevation than the land around them. They have steep slopes and a summit, which is the highest point of elevation. Mountains are formed when tectonic plates collide and push land upwards over millions of years, and shaped by wind and water erosion.
