Here's why:
* Appalachian Mountains: The Appalachians are a range of folded mountains. This means they were formed by the collision of tectonic plates, causing the Earth's crust to buckle and fold.
* Upwarped Mountains: Upwarped mountains are formed by a slow, vertical uplift of the Earth's crust. They typically have a dome-like shape.
Examples of Upwarped Mountains:
* The Black Hills in South Dakota
* The Adirondack Mountains in New York
Examples of Folded Mountains:
* The Appalachian Mountains
* The Rocky Mountains
* The Himalayas
