A . .
two oceanic plates diverge.
B .
two continental plates converge
C . an oceanic and a continental plate diverge
D.
an oceanic and a continental plate converge

The formation of mountains occurs due to the movement of plates, which are sections of Earth's crust. Moreover, this phenomenon happens when two plates converge or collide as this causes one plate to move beneath the other and creates elevations such as mountains.

Besides this, the formation of big mountains such as the Himalayas is mainly the result of continental plates converging (plates that form continents), for example, the Himalayas formed as the Eurasian and Indian plates collided.
