  1. On land , its Mt Everest. On ocean water its Mauna Loa.


  2. Mount. Everest. Being the tallest mountain also means that it is the youngest mountains of all, around the world. The reason to back this theory up is that the older the mountain the longer it has been exposed to erosion, so the shorter it is

  3. its Mauna loa..

    Only about 13,448 ft/4100m of Mauna Loa are above sea level, so it may not seem like a very tall mountain. But, when you start measuring Mauna Loa from its true base on the bottom of the ocean, in the Hawaiian Trough, the total height exceeds that of Everest by over 3/4 of a mile. Mauna Loa is Hawaiian for "Long Mountain", probably because of its long, gently sloping shape. If you want to get really technical, Mauna Kea, a neighbor of Mauna Loa on the same island of Hawaii, is actually the tallest mountain in the world. Mauna Kea is about 350 ft/107m taller than Mauna Loa, but its mass doesn't compare to that of Mauna Loa. Mauna Loa takes up a lot of space because its mass is 9,700 cubic miles/40,000 cu km of mountain.

  4. NO, the largest mountain is not Mt. Everest. It is not even the tallest mountain; it is only the mountain with the highest elevation. (The tallest mountain is Mauna Kea in Hawaii, when measured from base to summit)  The biggest mountain in the world is Mauna Loa, in the U.S. state of Hawaii.  It takes up about 40,000 cubic kilometers of space.  That's like if you had a box 34 kilometers long, 34 kilometer wide, and 34 kilometers high, and filled it all with rock!

  5. MT EVEREST!
