Are mountain ranges close together (explain mountains, mountain ranges, and mountain systems)?

mountain ranges are cool

Mountains ranges are close together. A mountain is a landform with high elevation and high relief. Mountain ranges are a group of mountains that are closely related in shape, structure, and age. A mountain system is a group of mountain ranges.

Mountain ranges tend to be more spread out rather than close together. The landform type has high relief and elevation. Mountain ranges are a group of mountains that are closely related in shape. A mountain system is a group of mountain ranges, but they aren't close together.
