When rocks break, they move along surfaces called?
When rocks break, they move along surfaces called faults or fractures. These are planes along which the rock layers have shifted relative to each other due to stress in the Earth's crust. Movement along these surfaces can result in earthquakes.
When rocks break they move along the surface called?
When rocks break, they move along the surface in a process known as faulting. This movement can occur due to tectonic forces, causing the rocks to break and move along fractures known as faults.
What is is it called when plate movement causes rocks to break?
When plate movement causes rocks to break it is call an earthquake.
What do you call a break or crack along which rocks move?
A fault is a break or crack along which rocks move. This movement can result in earthquakes when the accumulated stress is released.
When plate movement causes rocks to break what is is called?
actually convection is wrong the correct answer would be called faulting

What is a break or crack along which rocks moved called?
A break or crack along which rocks move is called a fault. Sudden motion along the faults result to earthquakes.
Is cleavage splitting of rocks in definite surfaces?
Cleavage is the splitting of rocks or minerals along defined surfaces.

A break in the crust along which rock moves?
This is called a fault.== ==
A fracture surface along which rocks can slip is called what?
That is called a fault. A fault is a break in the Earth's crust where rocks on either side can move relative to each other due to tectonic forces.
When plate movement causes rocks to break what is is called?
actually convection is wrong the correct answer would be called faulting
What is a break in the crust called?
A break in the earth's crust is called a fault line.
What is the point below the surface where rocks break and move apart?
The point below the surface where rocks break and move apart is called the focus or hypocenter. This is the point within the Earth's crust where the energy from an earthquake is released, causing the rocks to break and move along a fault line.
How do foliated rocks break?
Usually along the plane of foliation.
