Does earths weather occur in the thermosphere?
No, it occurs in the Troposphere.
What is the earths greatest density and this occurs in?
The Earth's core.
What occurs when the earths crust is squeezed into smaller space?
compression
What often occurs along faults or breaks in earths crust where movement occurs?
earthquakes
Where do most faults occurs?
Most Faults Occur Where The Earths Crust Is Extended
Where do majority of faults occurs?
The majority of faults occur in the plate boundaries.
How does a strike slip fault lead to an earthquake?
An earthquake occurs deep in the earths crust caused by the displacement of two faults in the crust. Directly above the fault on the earths surface is called the epicenter. Which shows the aftermath of the strike slip fault that occured in the earths crust. So the strike slip fault is the effect of the displacement of the crust at that point deep in the earths crust which causes an earthquake to happen whenever there is a displacement of two faults.
When faults shift what occurs?
That causes earthquakes

what does the energy come out as when a shift occurs in the earths crust called

Normal faults.
Where do shallow focus earthquakes occurs?
Within or adjacent to faults.
What type of fault occurs because of compression?
reverse faults
Earths weather occurs in the thermosphere?
False, it occurs in the troposphere.
What natural phenomenon occurs when magma breaks through the earths crust?
