| compression | The types of stress that occurs when rocks are squeezed together is called |
| shear | The type of stress that occurs when rocks are forced in opposite horizontal directions is |
| reverse fault | When compression causes the hanging wall to move upward in relation to the footwall this occurs |
| compression | The type of stress that causes rocks to fold is |
| anticline | A fold that produces an upward bulge in rocks |
| monocline | A fold with only one bend in which the rock layers on one side of the bend are higher than those on the other side of the bend is called a |
| deformation | A change in the shape or structure of the earth's crustal material is called |
| tension | The stretching, or pulling apart, of rocks |
| syncline | A fold producing a downward bulge is a |
| fault | When the rocks on either side of the fracture move in relation to each other a fracture becomes a |
| shear | A lateral fault that is created by this type of stress |
| normal fault | A fault that is created when the hanging wall moves downward in relation to the footwall |
| deformation | Bending, folding, breaking, sliding, and tilting of rock layers are all types of this |
| syncline | The center part of this fault is lower than either edge |
| lateral fault | The fault plane of this type of fault is usually verical |
| folded mountains | Type of mountains formed as a result of compression |
| reverse fault | Type of fault common in folded mountain ranges |
| Himalayas and Appalachians | A folded mountain range formed as a result of two continental plates colliding |
| fault-block mountain | Mountains formed as a result of tension |
| normal faults | Type of fault common in fault-block mountains |
| Grand Tetons of Wyoming | Mountain ranges formed as a result of the movement of divergent plate boundaries |
| plutonic mountains | Mountains formed as a result of an oceanic and a continental plate colliding |
| Sierra Nevada | Mountain range formed as a result of a convergent boundary being subducted under another |
| volcanic mountains | Mountains formed at the convergent boundary of two oceanic plates or an oceanic and a continental plate |
| Mt. Fugi and the Hawaiian Islands | Formed by magma reaching the surface |
| compressional stress | Forms folded , plutonic, and volcanic mountains |
| tensional stress | Forms fault-block mountains |
| plateaus | Areas of the curst that has been uplifted without forming mountains |
