  4. 10. type of stress that pushes rocks into two opposite directions.
  5. 12. type of stress when an object is squeezed.
  6. 13. a fracture or break in the earths lithosphere, along whick blocks of rock move past each other

  3. 3. the rocks are pushed together, convergent
  4. 5. rocks are pushed horizontally scraping past each other, transform
