There are strike- slip faults, normal faults, and reverse faults. A strike slip fault is where the ground moves past each other. A normal fault is where the plates move pull apart and the plates move up and down. A revers fault is where the plates push into each other and move up and down.
Faults in Earth's crust are the result of tensional, or shearing forces within the crust. Some of the causes of these forces are:
Subduction,
Volcanism,
Quakes,
Tectonic/thermal activity.
The three major kinds of faults.
1. normal fault
2. strike-slip fault
3. thrust fault

No. Your terminology is close but not quite right. The three main types of faults are normal faults, reverse faults, and strike-slip faults. Strike-slip faults may also be called transform faults.
it is the movement of plates between the surface of the earth!:0)
The two types of faults that can result in mountains are reverse faults and normal faults.
Convergence, divergence and strike slip.
-Normal Faults form when the hanging wall moves down. -Reverse Faults form when the hanging wall moves up. -Strike-Slip Faults have walls that moce sideways, instead of up or down.
The three types of faults are Normal faults, Reverse faults, and Strike and Slip fault
The two main types of science are natural sciences, which study the physical world (e.g. biology, physics, chemistry), and social sciences, which study human behavior and society (e.g. psychology, sociology, economics).
No. Your terminology is close but not quite right. The three main types of faults are normal faults, reverse faults, and strike-slip faults. Strike-slip faults may also be called transform faults.
the three types of faults are normal (colliding), reverse (moving apart), strike-slip (sliding past each other)
normal and rivesre fault, thrust fault, dip-strike fault.
There are three types of fault lines in the crust. There are divergent boundaries, convergent boundaries, and transform boundaries.
Faults are surfaces along the earths crust in which rocks have been fractured and displaced. There are three types of faults: strike-slip, normal and reverse.

Describe the three types of plate motion and the faults that are characteristic of each type of motion.
