fault
A fracture along which movement occurs is known as a fault. In geological terms, faults are fractures in the Earth's crust where blocks of rock have moved relative to each other, often due to tectonic forces. The movement can be horizontal, vertical, or oblique, resulting in different types of faults, such as strike-slip, normal, or reverse faults. Such movements can lead to earthquakes and significant geological changes in the affected area.
vertical... i think
The Earth's core.
compression
Fold mountains are formed by the upward movements of chunks of the Earth's crust. This occurs when tectonic plates collide, causing horizontal compression and the crust to buckle and fold, leading to the formation of fold mountains like the Himalayas.
earthquakes
Most Faults Occur Where The Earths Crust Is Extended
The majority of faults occur in the plate boundaries.
That causes earthquakes
reverse faults
Normal Faults, (Rifting).
Normal faults.
vertical... i think
A pathologic fracture occurs when a weakened bone breaks under normal strain.
This the way the movement occurs in smooth muscle. Peristalsis occurs in the intestine. Segmental movements occur there also but in large waves.
The Earth's core.
A tension fault occurs when there is stretching or pulling apart of the Earth's crust, which can lead to earthquakes as the rock breaks under the stress. This type of fault is associated with tectonic plate movements and occurs along divergent plate boundaries.
