• A strike –slip fault is a type of fault were rocks on either side move past each other sideways

Shearing
• Stress that pushes a mass of rock in opposite directions

Compression
• Compression squeezes rock and make it fold that causes syncline which is a downward fold in rock caused by compression

What’s Stress
• Stress is a force that happens when rock changes its shape or volume

Reverse fault
• A reversed fault is when the rock of the crust is pushed together

Normal fault
• A normal fault is when the hanging wall slides downward which is caused by tension

• The block of rock that forms the lower half of a fault
