6/15/21 Which geologic structure will most likely take the longest time to form?

1. A fault
2. A sinkhole
3. A river meander
3. A mountain range

4. A Mountain Range

Explanation:

Mountain ranges are formed as a result of compression forces pulling tectonic plates together and forcing them to collide. Upon collision, the affected areas will have no place to go but up and soo will form a mountain range.

The movements of these plates can be quite slow such that mountain ranges take between thousands to hundreds of thousands of years to form. Mt. Everest for instance was formed as a result of such collisions and it increases by only 2 cm a year.

so whats the answer? ?

since there isn't any suggested answers i will give you the reason and hopefully you can figure it

south africa, or rather all of africa, has not been in the location in which it is nowadays throughout the geological past. after the super-continent pangaea started to break apart, gondwanaland, in which was africa, moved further south, and parts of it came to be very close to the south pole. because the climate in this part of the world is very cold due to the very dispersed sun rays in there, what is now south africa, started to freeze, and the conditions were right for the formation of glaciers. the glaciers existed up until the period when gondwanaland started to break apart and what is now africa started to move towards north, sp it warmed up and the glaciers melted.
