A fault is a break in Earth's crust along which blocks of rock slide relative to one another. A fault can occur within a tectonic plate's boundaries. Boundaries between tectonic plates are always faults.
Yes a fault is a crack in the Earth's crust
two plates buckle over each other.
yes
Earths Major Earthquakes are caused by faulting of rock in earth's crust.Hope this helps
earthquakes often occur near fold mountains because fold mountains are formed on the earth's fault lines ( invisble lines in the earth's crust) and earthquakes happen when two fault lines crash together.
Faulting is caused by the stretching or compression of rock by tectonic plate movements
Movement of the plates can result in a large number of geological phenomena, among which are earthquakes, rifting, volcanism, mountain building, faulting, landslides, changes in global temperatures, and formation of new seas.
Faulting occurs in all three of these
yes, they can

earthquakes :)
faulting, earthquakes, volcanoes, and mountain building.
Most earthquakes are not caused by folding they are actually caused by faulting a sudden movement of land caused by friction.
Seismic waves or tremors
cracks == In addition to cracks: faulting, metamorphism to new rock types, earthquakes, tilting, and folding.
EARTHQUAKES have changes the earth in many ways. The folding and faulting of the earth crust have left big cracks in the earths crust. The folding and faulting only happen on the tectonic boundaries. TECTONIC BOUNDARIES: The plates that make up the earths contents.
earthquakes often occur near fold mountains because fold mountains are formed on the earth's fault lines ( invisble lines in the earth's crust) and earthquakes happen when two fault lines crash together.
The effects of diastrophism are so many on the surface of the earth and include formation of mountains, plateaus and may cause tremors and earthquakes.
