Stress in Earth's crust leads to movement and changes in Earth's lithosphere that result in?
earthquakes
What are the types of rock deformation?
elastic deformation, ductile deformation and fracture
What is elastic deformation?
Elastic deformation is recoverable deformation. As such, when the load that caused the deformation is removed the material will return to it's original shape.
What kind of deformation leads to deformation?
elastic deformation
What is rock deformation that is like a piece of miles clay and does not lead to earthquakes called?
if you are talking about deformation, it does cause earthquakes but they are very small

Why do some earthquakes happen in the earths mantle?
because of the folded deformation
Why do few earthquake happen in earths mantle?
Few earthquakes happen in the earths mantle do to the fact that the mantle has a folded deformation. This means that the amount of pressure on the mantle caused it to deform.
Convection here leads to earthquakes?

The type of deformation in which the object permanently changes size and shape without fracturing is called?
Ductile deformation
What type of deformation is the opposite of stretching?
Bending
How does movement in tectonic plates cause deformation in rocks?
the plate tectonics can have contact with one another and cause earthquakes, and tsunami's

Why don't earthquakes occur in the asthenosphere?
Few earthquakes happen in the mantle because of the folded deformation.
What leads to earthquakes along a fault?
bending of the rocks followed by slipping...
