Dr. Suess proposed the theory of plate tectonics to explain the formation of mountains. According to this theory, Earth's outer shell, known as the lithosphere, is divided into several large, rigid plates that move and interact with each other. Mountains are formed when these plates collide, causing the crust to buckle and uplift, creating geological features such as mountain ranges.
Geologists classify mountains based on their formation process, height, and steepness of slopes. Some features called mountains may not meet the specific criteria set by geologists, such as being formed by tectonic processes like folding and faulting. Therefore, they may be referred to as hills or other landforms instead.
The scientific study of the formation and shape of mountains is called orogenesis. It focuses on the processes that lead to the creation of mountain ranges and the geological structures that contribute to their shape and formation.
A person who studies mountains is called a geologist or a geomorphologist. They specialize in the formation, structure, and history of mountains.
The science of mountains is called orography. It is the branch of physical geography that studies the formation, structure, and classification of mountains.
The theory of plate tectonics helps to explain how earthquakes and volcanic eruptions occur.
Dr. Seuss did not explain the formation of mountain ranges. He was a children's author and illustrator known for his whimsical stories and imaginative characters, not for scientific explanations. Geologists study processes like tectonic plate movements and erosion to explain the formation of mountain ranges.

I can not tell you what German Suess means. German Suess can not be translated to English
The phenomenon responsible for the formation of the highest mountains is Tectonism. This is caused mostly as a result the collision movements of various lithospheric plates. The process of formation of the mountains is termed Orogeny.
