What is the break in earth's crust where rocks can slide past each other?
Earthquakes with "Faults" or "Fault Lines"
What is a fracture along which blocks of crust move relitive to each other?
That's called a 'fault line'.
What is openings in Earth's crust that allows magma to reach the surface called?
The opening of the crust where magma is allowed to reach to the surface is called a fault line.
What is a break in the crust where slabs slip past each other called?
There are breaks in the Earth's crust where slabs of rock slip past each other. These places are called fault lines.

What is a break in the crust called?
A break in the earth's crust is called a fault line.
What is the name of the break in Earth's crust where movement of rock occurs?
A break in the Earth's crust along which there has been some movement is a fault. A fault is considered a planar fracture.
What is the fracture along which blocks of crust move relative to each other?
The fracture along blocks of crust (tectonic plates) is called a "fault" or "fault line".

Earthquakes with "Faults" or "Fault Lines"
What usually occurs near a fault line in the Earth's crust?
Earthquakes, and volcanoes form.
Where do the volcanoes and earthquakes occur?
They Can occur anywere a Fault Line is on Earth They happen when earths crust releases and the Fault Line send out Energy =p

What is the difference between a fold and a fault?
Folds and faults are both formed from compression on opposite sides due to tectonic movement of the earth's crust. However, in a fold, the crust does not break, it simply is deformed in a curved pattern. In a fault, the rocks in the crust actually shatter, and movement is seen along a fault line, wheby rocks are displaced relative to each other.
What fault line caused the 1906 San Francisco earthquake?
it was caused by the two plates in the earth that hit each other
What is openings in Earth's crust that allows magma to reach the surface called?
