What type of fault is a convergent boundary?
A convergent boundary is a reverse fault. It's a reverse fault because it it pushing together, while a divergent boundary is a normal fault because 2 plates are pushing away from each other.
Three types of faults?
The normal fault, the thrust fault, the transcurrent fault , and the reverse fault.
Does divergent motion create reverse faults?
No. They occur at convergent boundaries.
A what fault generally occurs at a convergent boundary?
reverse
What type of plate boundary causes a reverse fault?
In an ideal world this would be a margin that involves some element of compression, so you're looking at a compressional (orogenic) or subducting margin. Anywhere where the crust is thickened generally involves reverse, also known as thrust, faulting.
