In geology, a fault is a planar fracture or discontinuity in a volume of rock across which there has been significant displacement as a result of rock-mass movements. Large faults within the Earth's crust result from the action of plate tectonic forces, with the largest forming the boundaries between the plates, such as subduction zones or transform faults.[1] Energy release associated with rapid movement on active faults is the cause of most earthquakes. Faults may also displace slowly, by aseismic creep.[2]

A fault plane is the plane that represents the fracture surface of a fault. A fault trace or fault line is a place where the fault can be seen or mapped on the surface. A fault trace is also the line commonly plotted on geologic maps to represent a fault.[3][4]

A fault zone is a cluster of parallel faults.[5][6] However, the term is also used for the zone of crushed rock along a single fault.[7] Prolonged motion along closely spaced faults can blur the distinction, as the rock between the faults is converted to fault-bound lenses of rock and then progressively crushed.[8]

d. internalization

Explanation:

In the statement Carmen is explaining how there were different types of groups in her High School. These groups were set by the students. She describes that these groups were simple to spot because of their appearance and that “people should already know where to go”. This is an example of a pre-conception concept, that if you didn’t match to any of the groups then you shouldn’t be with them. In some way the people of the school already internalized this “norms” and followed them.

Answer:

This statement is <u>TRUE</u>.

Explanation:

Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) measures brain activity in blood flow.  The blood flow concentrates or increases in the neural zone that is being used or activated.

This technique can be afected by certain factors such as noise from the scanner, also it can be afected by brain activity from sensations or thoughts. This is the reason why the subjects go through at least two different treatments in order to determine relative increases in the activation of each treatment.
