Formation of the Andes: The Andes is a young fold mountain range stretching from north to south in the west of South America. It is very high and steep running roughly parallel to the west coast.

Formation of Rocks The three main ways rocks are formed: • Sedimentary rocks are formed through the gradual accumulation of sediment: for example‚ sand on a beach or mud on a river bed. As the sediment is buried it is compacted as more and more material is deposited on top. Eventually the sediment will become so dense that it is essentially rock. This process is known as lithification. • Igneous rocks are rocks which have crystallized from a melt or magma. The melt is made up of various components

Creation of Oahu by Volcanism Karen Ta: 430 BOT 450 TR 10:30-11:20 Volcanoes are magnificent formations from an opening in a planet’s crust. They form when magma‚ volcanic ash‚ and gases escape from a magma chamber below the surface of the planet. Tectonic plates cover the surface of the planet and are constantly moving. Volcanoes are generally found where these plates converge or diverge. Not only are volcanoes found in these areas but also where the Earth’s crust is stretching or thinning
