Who is the biggest mountan of the world?

Question

Who is the biggest mountan of the world?

Answer 1

Not who is but which is

Not mountan but mountain

Not biggest but highest

Some people may call who is your big brother - but it should actually be your elder brother. Big could mean fat or big in physical size. Mountains can be big if are looking for a mountain range - look up in your geography book.

There is no harm in picking up the dictionary once in a while - when you do not know how to say it or spell it - you may learn something new.

That's how we all started.

Answer 2

not "who my elder brother" it is what is the biggest mountain in the world?

you mean to say that it is BIGGEST? ahm.. i prefer to answer the mountain with biggest in size, well this is my answer.. The biggest mountain in the world, Mauna Loa, is a shield volcano with gently sloping sides.

Bet you thought that the biggest mountain was Mount Everest! If you haven't already checked it out here at "Extreme Science", Mount Everest does hold a world record, but not as the biggest mountain. Everest is the highest elevation on land, but it is only a single peak in an entire mountain range. Mauna Loa is a single mountain on the island of Hawaii. The island of Hawaii is actually an island made up of five volcanoes which "blend" together because of their closeness to each other, making a single island.





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.

What makes Mauna Loa such a big mountain is the way it was formed. As part of the Hawaiian islands, Mauna Loa is a volcano, just like many others found on the island chain. The volcanoes in the Hawaiian islands are different from the cone-shaped, explosive, "fire breathing" dynamos that most of us think of when volcanoes come to mind. Mauna Loa is one of many shield volcanoes that make up the Hawaiian Islands. These are volcanoes that, compared to their more violent companions, erupt slowly and quietly. What really distinguishes a shield volcano is its shape - they are usually much wider than they are tall. Shield volcanoes are created when red hot lava oozes out from cracks, or fissures in the earth's crust.

In the case of the Hawaiian islands, the fissures were in the ocean floor. The lava cools as it comes in contact with the ocean water. The newly deposited lava raises the level of the ocean floor just in the area around the fissure . Over time, and many oozing eruptions, a gently sloping sea mount forms . A sea mount is, quite simply, a mountain on the floor of the ocean, only the top doesn't reach above the surface. Over a million years, or more, lava slowly builds up the sea mount until the top reaches above the surface of the sea. When this happens, it finally earns the title of island

Answer 9

Mount Everest.

Answer 10

Mt Everest has the highest elevation, but measured from the underwater base to the summit, Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa in Hawaii are both nearly a mile taller. Mauna Loa is the biggest single mountain on earth with a mass of 9,700 cubic miles, but most of it is under water.
