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.

How can a region such as latin america still have large amounts of diversity?
Neko [114]
Nowadays, Latin America is on the spot light for International business. Several Latin American countries are becoming better off. Countries such as, Mexico, Chile, Brazil, Colombia and Peru are characterized by an economic boom, financial stability, trade liberalization, demographic shifts, and an expanding middle class society. Although poverty and inequality still prevail in the region, some of these countries are evolving and are no longer fundamentally poor. Better economic conditions, a huge market and an increasing talented labor force are presenting Latin America to the world as a land rich of business opportunities. In the past 4-5 years due to the European crisis and the slowdown of growth in The United States, several Latin American countries have become recipients of increasing Foreign Direct Investment. Not only that, but also, successful corporations in the region, known as Multilatinas, have expanded to other countries in the region and abroad. Time has arrived to understand better how to do business in the region and to identify how different this task could be, depending on the country.
