Faults are created when tectonic plates are stretching or compressing. There are two types of faults which are normal and reverse faults.
gradpoint: anticlines
Stress and faults are both caused by tectonic plates.
When plates move apart or diverge, it is called a normal fault (happens along a divergent boundary). When plates collide or converge, a reverse fault occurs (when the hanging wall pushes up, and the foot wall pushes down). When plates slide past each other, it is called a strike-slip fault, which typically occurs at a transform plate boundary.Also, if you are still having doubts, do more research on strike-slip faults, normal faults, and reverse faults by just typing it in.
The two types of faults that can result in mountains are reverse faults and normal faults.
Folds are the when the rock layers bend. Faults are breaks in the rock layers. Folds are called anticlines and synclines. Faults are called reverse faults, normal faults, or strike-slip faults.

Tectonic stress forms faults and blocks mountains.

reverse faults move from compression when the hanging wall moves up
