Tension stress of a fault occurs when slabs of rock are pulled apart from each other.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

Rocks and Scattered stones that are being pulled apart from each other is known as tension stress, which is also called as extension. The tension causes the stones to elongate or fall apart. It is the most important type of stress occurring at various board boundaries.  

The stress is shear when the forces operate in parallel, but in opposite directions. It is the element of stresses vertical to a given surface, such as surface cracking due to forces acting to the surface or external forces transferred by the surrounding rock.

What was on result of the potato famine
Andru [333]
Great Famine, also called Irish Potato Famine, Great Irish Famine, or Famine of 1845–49, famine that occurred in Ireland in 1845–49 when the potato crop failed in successive years. The crop failures were caused by late blight, a disease that destroys both the leaves and the edible roots, or tubers, of the potato plant. As a direct consequence of the famine, Ireland's population fell from almost 8.4 million in 1844 to 6.6 million by 1851. About 1 million people died and perhaps 2 million more eventually emigrated from the country. Many who survived suffered from malnutrition. Additionally, because the financial burden for weathering the crisis was placed largely on Irish landowners, hundreds of thousands of tenant farmers and laborers unable to pay their rents were evicted by landlords unable to support them. Continuing emigration and low birth rates meant that by the 1920s Ireland's population was barely half of what it had been before the famine.
