Which of the following pairs are correctly matched?
- Tienshan : Fold mountain
- Vosges : Structural dome
- Ferghana : Deep-seated fault
- Maura Loa : Volcanic cone
-
1, 2, 3 and 4
-
1, 3 and 4
-
2 and 4
-
1, 2 and 3
B
Correct answer
Explanation
Tienshan (Tianshan) are fold mountains formed by the Indian-Eurasian plate collision. Ferghana Valley is a deep-seated fault basin. Mauna Loa (despite typo 'Maura') is a massive volcanic cone in Hawaii. Option 2 is incorrect because Vosges are block mountains (horsts), not structural domes - structural domes are uplifted rock layers bent into an arch shape.
