QUE SIGNIFIE MOUNTAIN EN ANGLAIS
Montagne
Une montagne est une grande forme de relief qui s'étend au-dessus de la terre environnante dans une zone limitée, habituellement sous la forme d'un pic. Une montagne est généralement plus abrupte qu'une colline. Les montagnes sont formées à travers des forces tectoniques ou du volcanisme. Ces forces peuvent augmenter localement la surface de la terre de plus de 10 000 pieds. Les montagnes érodent lentement par l'action des rivières, des conditions météorologiques et des glaciers. Quelques montagnes sont des sommets isolés, mais la plupart se produisent dans d'énormes chaînes de montagnes. Les hautes altitudes sur les montagnes produisent des climats plus froids qu'au niveau de la mer. Ces climats plus froids affectent fortement l'écosystème des montagnes: différentes élévations ont des plantes et des animaux différents. En raison du terrain et du climat moins hospitaliers, les montagnes ont tendance à être moins utilisées pour l'agriculture et plus pour l'extraction de ressources et les loisirs, comme l'escalade. La plus haute montagne de la terre est le mont Everest dans l'Himalaya de l'Asie, dont le sommet est de 8 849,868 m au-dessus du niveau moyen de la mer. La montagne la plus connue sur toute planète dans le système solaire est Olympus Mons sur Mars à 21 171 m.
