The answer is a fault-block mountain
dip-slip faults
Reverse and normal
Thrust faults will do this - the alps. So will normal faults - horsts
Normal faults thin and extend the earth's crust. Reverse faults cause crustal shortening and thickening.
The answer is a fault-block mountain
dip-slip faults
by two normal faults
Reverse and normal
Yes, and a mountain range
Thrust faults will do this - the alps. So will normal faults - horsts
A graben is characterized by a hanging wall block that has moved down between two normal faults. In thrust faulting the crust is shortened and thickened.

No, only reverse faults can cause a mountain.
Normal faults are caused by tension in the movement of rocks
Normal faults are when you have hanging walls that slide down relative to and below the footwall. Dip-slip faults are normal faults.
Normal Faultin a normal fault, the hanging wall slips down relative to the footwallfootwall- the rock that lies belowhanging wall- the block of rock that lies abovenormal fault- tension in Earth's crust pulls rock apart which causes normal fault2.
