A017) Strike-Slip Faults - Kazakhstan. The Problem 17 placemark points to an elliptical-shaped plutonic intrusion in Kazakhstan
near Lake Balkhash that has been offset by a fault. Given the offset boundaries of the pale-colored igneous rock in the view, what is the sense of offset along this fault
From the excerpt: A017) Strike-Slip Faults - Kazakhstan.
Sense of offset along the fault is RIGHT LATERAL and this is because the fault present there is known as Dzhungarian Fault which is either right lateral or dextral strike-slip fault. with an extension of 300 km from the Dzhungarian basin.
If the equations have the same slope for example y=4x+2 AND y=4x+3 have the smae slope of 4/1, making them parallel but if the don't have the same slope for example y=2x+3 and y=4x+4 then they are not parallel
Plant leaves and dead organic matter are broken down by decomposers,to produce soil nutrients for plants. This is an important role decomposers play in the nutrient cycles.
