Answer:

Fault

Explanation:

A break or crack in earth's lithosphere along with rocks move. Earth is made up of 4 basic layers a crust,mantle,outer core,inner core and lithosphere.  A solid crust and hard layers of mantle  make up a region name the lithosphere. The lithosphere is made up of pieces of tectonic plates. These plates are constantly changing and move towards the mantle. Non-stop movement of tectonic plates causes stress on the earth's outermost layer i.e,the crust. When these stresses extends it leads to cause cracks called faults.

The correct answer is that "further teaching on skin care is necessary". This patient is using tepid water to cleanse the area as well as applying ice three times a day.

Cold water or ice will constrict blood vessels in the area and can produce tissue necrosis by ischemia. Warm to hot water can scald the skin (if hot enough) and even promote the redness as warm water dilates blood vessels.

What is elastic rebound???
Darya [45]

In geology, the elastic-rebound theory is an explanation for how energy is released during an earthquake. As adjoining plates on the Earth's surface move in opposite directions, the rocks which span the opposing sides of the incipient fault are subjected to extreme shear stress.
