### Geology Quiz on Faults and Rifting **27. During rifting, crustal material will typically experience faulting and:** - (A) shortening - (B) stretching - (C) shear strain - (D) rotation **28. In a ________ fault, the fault plane is non-vertical and the hanging-wall block moves downward relative to the footwall block.** - (A) detachment - (B) normal - (C) reverse - (D) thrust **29. In the following picture (below) from a quarry, what kind of fault is this?** - (A) strike slip - (B) transform - (C) normal - (D) reverse *Description of Image 1:* The image shows a quarry with clear rock layers. The layers appear displaced by a fault, visible as a diagonal line across the stratification. **30. In the following photo (below) how would you describe this fault?** - (A) thrust - (B) right lateral - (C) normal - (D) left lateral *Description of Image 2:* The image presents a road with visible displacement due to faulting. The road seems offset, suggesting lateral movement. **31. In the following cartoon (below) how would you describe this fault?** - (A) thrust - (B) right lateral - (C) normal - (D) reverse *Note:* Answers to the questions are not provided here. Please analyze the images and options to determine the correct answers.
