Which of the following is true about the formation of faults.

SAT
1 answer:
blondinia [14]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A fault is formed in the Earth's crust as a brittle response to stress. Generally, the movement of the tectonic plates provides the stress, and rocks at the surface break in response to this.  If you whack a hand-sample-sized piece of rock with a hammer, the cracks and breakages you make are faults.

The theory of plate tectonics states that the solid outer crust of planet Earth (lithosphere) is typically divided into enormous (massive) slabs of solid rock (plates) that move over the asthenosphere, including the upper portion of the mantle.

<h3>The uses of the theory of plate tectonics.</h3>
  • It can be used to explain the presence of magnetic anomalies on the ocean floor.
  • It can be used to explain the geographical distribution of earthquakes and volcanoes.
  • It can be used to explain the presence of glacial deposits in tropical areas.
