The three types of stress that act on Earth's rocks are compression, tension and shear. Among all the options that are given in the question, the correct option is option "D". These kind of stress action creates the rocks to break in a natural way. The earth's rocks sometimes collide with one another, pull apart from each other and sometimes slide against each other. Whenever two rocks collide with each other, they create a compression force. When the two rocks of the earth tries to pull away from each other, it creates a tension force. The sliding of two earth's rocks creates a shearing force.
