1
Formed from tension in Earth's crust.Type of mountain.
2
Shearing produces this type of fault. Both pieces of rock slip past each other with little up or down motion. Forms a transform boundary.
3
Compression and folding of the crust forming a mountain range.
4
Same structure as a normal fault. Blocks move in opposite direction that a normal fault goes. Where compression pushes the rock together.
5
Rocks are pushed in squeezed together. Move together and Collide. Occurs at a convergent boundary.
6
Cuts through rock at an angle. One piece of rock sits over the the fault and the other lies under the fault. The one over is called the hanging wall. The one below is called the footwall. Where 2 plates diverge.
7
a fold in a rock that bends upward in an arc
8
Stress that pushes a mass of rock in two opposite directions. Can cause rock to break. Occurs where 2 plates slip past each other.
9
a fold in a rock that bends downward forming a v shape
10
Rock in the crust is stretched so that it becomes thinner in the middle. The force that pulls on the crust is called _______. Occurs where 2 plates pull apart.
11
Large area of flat land elevated high above sea level.
12
A force that is put on rocks to change its shape or volume
13
A crack or break between a rock sometimes located at a transform boundary
14
amount of space that is occupied by matter
15
a push or pull on a object
16
amount of matter in an object
17
Bends in rock that form when compression shortens and thickens Earth's crust.
