Question

which type of earthquake fault happens at divergent boundaries, where rocks on one side move downward relative to the other side, with movement visible at earths surface and rock layers dropping down? a reverse fault b normal fault c strike - slip fault d blind thrust fault

Explanation:

Normal faults occur at divergent boundaries where one side moves downward relative to the other, with visible surface - level movement and rock layers dropping down. Reverse faults are associated with compression, strike - slip faults have horizontal movement, and blind thrust faults are not visible at the surface.

Answer:

B. normal fault
