D None of the above.

Respuesta :

Answer:

C: 2 continental plates collide.

Explanation:

Mountains are formed on land, and it wouldn't make sense for an oceanic plate to be involved.

Mountain formation can result when B) Two continental plates collide.

  • Mountain formation does not occur when the two oceanic plates collide, nor when two oceanic plates spread apart.
  • Mountain formation occurs when two continental plates crunch and fold the rock at the boundary.
  • The boundary between the two continental plates is lifted up which leads to the formation of mountain.

Hence, option B) Two continental plates collide is correct.
