Question

paul was looking at the different kinds of faults that form when earth’s crust is under stress. he read that each fault tends to form at certain plate boundaries. drag each kind of fault to the plate boundary that produces it.
normal fault
reverse fault
strike - slip fault
transform boundary
convergent boundary
divergent boundary

Explanation:

Each fault type is linked to the tectonic stress at specific plate boundaries:

1. Divergent boundaries pull crust apart, creating tension that forms normal faults.
2. Convergent boundaries push crust together, creating compression that forms reverse faults.
3. Transform boundaries involve horizontal sliding of plates, creating shear stress that forms strike-slip faults.

Answer:

• normal fault → divergent boundary
• reverse fault → convergent boundary
• strike-slip fault → transform boundary
