The fault is younger than the lower rocks but older those above it.
Explanation:
A fault found that cuts through lower rock layers but not those above it suggests that the fault is younger than the lower rock but older than those above it.
This interpretation is based on the principle of cross-cutting which states that "an intrusion or fault is younger than the rocks they cut through".
- In essence, an intrusion or fault cannot cut through a rock sequence unless it is already in place.
- This is why the fault that cuts through the rock layers is younger than the rock layers.
- But since it did not pass through the layers above, it is older than it.

Answer:
According to the Wilson cycle, the plate motion takes place continuously as a result of which the divergent motion of the continental plates results in the formation of the rift valley and oceans. These continuous divergent motion of continental plates results in the convergent of continental plates at some other places, which give rise to the formation of the large mountain and mountain ranges.
These Mountain ranges are the large geological landforms that are constructed due to the convergent motion of two continental tectonic plates.
For example, the Appalachians were formed due to the collision of the North American and the North African plate, about 480 million years back, which are now separated by the Atlantic ocean
The mountain belt of Urals was formed due to the collision of the eastern European and Kazakhstan continent that occurred from the late Paleozoic time to the early Triassic age.
