Which prosses is responsible for crakes in successive strata in the earth
bazaltina [42]

B) Faulting

Layers of strata in the earths crust naturally slide along each other. Sometimes friction or blockage causes this process to stop, until enough pressure builds up to overcome whatever the resistant force is. Faulting is the process by which this pressure forces the strata to continue their movement, often producing cracks in the involved strata, and causing earthquakes and tremors in the event of an intense pressure release.
