GENERAL KNOWLEDGE

Detailed explanation-1: -A mountain is a large natural elevation of the earth’s surface rising abruptly from the surrounding level, a large steep hill . Movements of tectonic plates create volcanoes along the plate boundaries, which erupt and form mountains.

Detailed explanation-2: -Mountains: a large natural elevation of the earth’s surface rising abruptly from the surrounding level; a large steep hill.

Detailed explanation-3: -Hills are smaller landforms than mountains, but they share many of the same characteristics. Like mountains, hills have a higher elevation than the land around them, and are often formed by tectonic activity and erosion. But hills are generally smaller (elevation is typically under 3, 000 ft.)

Detailed explanation-4: -Mountains have the highest elevation of all the natural landforms. They usually have a steep slope and a small summit. Mountains that form a line are called a range.
