What is a strike slip fault?


1. folding caused by tension stress

2. a fold caused by shear stress

3. a fracture caused by tension stress

4. a fracture caused by shear stress

Respuesta :

Answer:

1. folding caused by tension stress

Explanation:

An idealized strike-slip fault runs in a straight line with a vertical dip and has only horizontal motion, thus there is no change in topography due to motion of the fault. In reality, as strike slip faults become large and developed, their behavior changes and becomes more complex.
