question 7 of 28
the grand tetons are fault - block mountains. what caused the grand tetons to form?
a. the forces at a divergent boundary
b. the stresses along a transform boundary
c. the temperature inside a mid - ocean ridge
d. the movement within a subduction zone

Explanation:

Fault - block mountains form due to tensional forces that cause the crust to break into blocks. Divergent boundaries are areas where tectonic plates move apart, creating tensional forces. Transform boundaries involve side - to - side movement, mid - ocean ridges are related to sea - floor spreading, and subduction zones involve one plate moving under another.

Answer:

A. The forces at a divergent boundary
