What are the two types of stress that deforms?
Two types of stress are compressional and tensional stress. Shear stress also plays a significant role in deformations in the Earth's crust at transform and strike slip faults.

What types of forces or stresses produces folds in rocks?
Tensional forces and compressional forces.
What faults are correctly associated with which types of stress?
All faults are associated with stress, as summarised below: Normal faults - tensile stress Reverse / thrust faults - compressive stress Strike slip faults - shear stress
What are some types of stress in rocks?
The three main types of stress in a rock are shearing, tension, and compression.
What are the main types of geologic structures arising from brittle and ductile deformation?
Faults are formed by brittle deformations and folds are formed by ductile deformation.
Two types of faults can result in mountains which are they?
The two types of faults that can result in mountains are reverse faults and normal faults.
What is falting rock?
Faulting is caused by stress in the rock layers, the stress can break and crack the rock causing a fault. There are two types of faults a normal fault and a reverse fault.
What are 3 types of stress and the faults each creates?
Normal Faults (extensional force <-- --> ) Reverse Faults (Compressional Force --> <--- ) Strike Slip faults (Sliding force in opposite directions.. ( ---> <--- )

The three types of stresses are compression, tension and shear...
