1) <span>No, because shearing causes strike-slip faults or normal faults are caused by tension.
2) </span><span>Diagram A shows a section of rock that contains three different layers. All layers are parallel and are equal in thickness. There are no forces being exerted on the rock layers.
3) </span>Compression: stresses are directed inward - produces thrust faults, reverse faults, or folding; Tension: stresses directed outward
