If you wanted to know whether a certain mountain was formed by compression what would you look for?
To determine if a mountain was formed by compression, you would look for folded and faulted rock layers, as well as evidence of intense pressure causing rocks to deform. Additionally, you might find evidence of compression in the form of thrust faults or folded strata within the mountain. Lastly, examining the types of rocks and their orientation can also provide clues about the mountain's formation.
Why do sedimentary rock layers become folded and faulted as you move from west to east?
That would depend on the location on Earth that you were moving west to east along. The movement from west to east can be undertaken anywhere on Earth.
Rocks being pushed together is what?
Rocks being pushed together is called compression. This can result in the rocks being folded, faulted, or metamorphosed depending on the amount of force applied.
How do the sequence of sedimentary rocks in cratons differ from those in mountain belts?
The sequences of sedimentary rocks in cratons are typically thin and are relatively undeformed or gently warped. The sequences in mountain belts, meanwhile, are thick and extensively folded and faulted.
