boundaries where tectonic plates collide, causing the crust to buckle and rise. This process, known as orogeny, can create mountain ranges such as the Himalayas or the Andes. Additionally, volcanic activity at plate boundaries can also lead to the formation of mountain ranges, such as the Cascade Range in the Pacific Northwest. Other landforms, such as valleys and rifts, can also be formed at plate boundaries through the process of crustal movement and deformation.
