Answer:

B. They will continue to grow because of plate collision.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Himalayan Mountains will continue to grow if the current trends were to continue due to plate collision.

The Himalayan mountain range is located in Asia and it is a major topographic feature.

  • This mountain range forms from the collision between the collision of the Eurasia and Indian Plate.
  • It started about 50million years ago and it is still continuing till today.
