Normal fault - a dip-slip fault in which the block above the fault has moved downward relative to the block below. This type of faulting occurs in response to extension and is often observed in the Western United States Basin and Range Province and along oceanic ridge systems.

thrust fault - a dip-slip fault in which the upper block, above the fault plane, moves up and over the lower block. This type of faulting is common in areas of compression, such as regions where one plate is being subducted under another as in Japan. When the dip angle is shallow, a reverse fault is often described as a thrust fault.

strike-slip fault - a fault on which the two blocks slide past one another. The San Andreas Fault is an example of a right lateral fault.

A left-lateral strike-slip fault is one on which the displacement of the far block is to the left when viewed from either side.

A right-lateral strike-slip fault is one on which the displacement of the far block is to the right when viewed from either side.

What usually impacts agriculture production and consumption
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

Desertification, nutrients in the soil, access to water, tools made for agriculture, location, climate, water pollution, the production of the food product, etc.

Explanation:

There are many factors that contribute in the decision making of food choices and the growth and production of food. In able to have a productive farm, some farmers choose to use many workers, some choose to use large tools, like tractors and irrigation systems. If there is not enough water getting to the farm, in some places like California, they will make a system or transport the water to the farm. Climate and weather also play a big role. If the climate does not supply the right resources to the plants, they will not be able to grow properly. Some climates are able to grow certain plants better than in other regions. The process of the food production affects how some make their food choices. For example, some people dislike how animals are treated and cared for before they are used for meat. Then, these people make the decision to not eat meat at all or from some companies that mistreat their animals. When their is water pollution near-by farms, farmers will struggle to grow their crops. When chemicals, from these polluted water sources, travel through the soil to the farms, the crops die or are harmed. In places like Africa, with dry climates, they use one plot of land for growing crops, then move to another plot the next year, because the nutrients from that plot were used all up for growing those plants. Sometimes, they even burn the weeds and shrubs after the harvest because it provides the soil with nutrients. This method is called slash and burn.
