How Plate Tectonic Theory Explains Mountains

The Plate Tectonic Theory explain mountains because they form in oceans. Mountains primarily form at plate margins, or places where boundaries of plates meet at and interact (Nagel and Sawinski 1). The mountains form in oceans mostly because of the mid ocean ridges. The mid ocean ridges converge, creating underwater mountains. The mountains above ground are mostly caused, and responsible for convergent plate boundaries
