Plates and mountain Formation

3. these are fractures along which movement has occurred on either side of the crack.
6. a bent layer or series of layers, of rock that were originally horizontal and have become deformed.
7. this is a down wrap fold
8. this is an arch shape fold
9. faults these are faults in which the movement along the the fracture is horizontal and parallel to the strike of the fault surface.
10. This is the mountain building process.

1. faults these are faults in which the movement is mainly vertical.
2. mountains this is often the mark the spot of a convergent plate boundary, where one plate is sliding down below the other in an area called a subduction Zone.
4. when rocks originally form in flat layers.
5. mountains this also takes shape along convergent plate boundaries, especially where two continental plates collide, compressing and uplifting the rocks.
6. mountains these form when huge blocks of the earth's crust have been tilted or pushed up along a fault lines.
7. theses are created from rock particles settling on the seabed
