    This document discusses the formation of fold mountains and ocean trenches. Fold mountains like the Alps form through collision and compression of continental plates, pushing sedimentary rocks upwards to form anticlines and synclines. Ocean trenches form at the edges of continents where one tectonic plate subducts beneath another, with destructive convection currents pulling the overriding plate downward to form deep ocean trenches.
