The correct answer is Folded mountains.
- The Aravalli Range in India is the oldest fold mountain system in the world.
-
Fold mountains are made when two or more tectonic plates of Earth are pushed together.
- The Aravalli range has worn down due to erosion.
- Aravalli range is present mainly in Rajasthan.
-
The Appalachians in North America and Ural mountains in Russia are also folded mountains.
Thus, we can say that Aravalli is a folded mountain.
- There are three types of mountains:
-
Fold Mountains (e.g. Aravalli Range in India)
-
