What compounds are formed as a result of?
These compounds are called products of the reaction.
Formation of a cliff?
Cliffs are formed when the softer rock and sediments erode away from rock formations that are more resistant to erosion, like sandstone, granite, or basalt. They are also formed by sudden geologic movement, like landslides or earthquakes along fault lines.
Fault block mountains are primarly the result of faulting and?
Fault block mountains are often created through rifting, which is an indication of tensional tectonic forces. Fault block mountains are primarily the result of faulting and folding.
The basin and range province in the western us is a result of what faulting?
normal ,tensional
What forms from a transverse plate boundary?
A transverse range forms as a result of compression and thrust faulting. The faulting occurs where San Andreas Fault turns E-W.
How is river cliff formed?
The river cliffs are developed by erosion of the rocks by the water and rocks. The friction between the two will result slopes on the ground and after a span of time. Enormous cliffs will appear in the borders of the river. river cliffs are formed by the water eroding away the rock, and, overtime, they will create massive cliffs on the sides of the river

Compression can result in if the force is strong enough to break the crust?
faulting

The cliffs and slopes of the Grand Canyon are a result of?
erosion
Which is a result of compression forces acting on plates?
a result of compression forces acting on plates is massive folding and faulting of rock
Shock waves that are felt on the earths surface as the result of faulting in the Earth's crust?
earthquakes :)
