This question relates to the subject of geology. Sometimes we do wonder how these huge structures i.e. mountains came into existence in the first place. First of all a massive amount of sediment accumulates on the ocean floor. When an oceanic plate and a continental plate meet at a destructive boundary, this sediment is disturbed. As subduction of the oceanic plate occurs, sediment is scraped from the ocean floor and piled up along the edge of the continent itself.

The ranges part you go figure out yourself "la"... Range of mountains...
