Is brittle deformation a form of rock deformation?
yes.It is as a result of compression forces acting on a rock which is not very tough as a result it break.if a rock is highly resistant folding occurs and you have a fold mountain building up.
What are the types of rock deformation?
elastic deformation, ductile deformation and fracture
What type of deformation leads to earthquakes?
iT CHANGES THE SHAPE OF THE ROCK BUT DOES NOT CAUSE EARTHQUAKES
Shear forces at a fault can form?
Shear forces are the responses of a rock to deformation usually by compressive stress. These forces form a strike slip fault.
What conditions make rock more ductile?
Ductile deformation is observed by folding of rock layers. Ductile deformation can take place by plastic flow of hot, weak rock.
What structure form as a result of ductile deformation?
Geological structures form as a result of ductile deformation. These structures include glacier rock, slate, and other such features found as a result of rock wearing down.
What is a deformation and what causes it?
Deformation is a change in the shape and volume of a rock, deformation is produced when a rock experiences a stress that is greater than the strength of the rock.

How are metamorphic rock structures related to deformation?
Deformation can create metamorphic rock structures.....

What is the breaking tilting and folding of rock?
deformation
What is ductile deformation-?
it is when something breaks from its original shape and cannot return to its original form
