A _________ boundary produces a strike-slip fault.

• convergent

• divergent

• transform

• All of these are correct.

In a normal fault, the hanging wall _________.

• moves up relative to the footwall

• moves down relative to the footwall

• becomes level with the footwall

• stays the same, but the footwall moves

In a reverse fault, the hanging wall moves up relative to the footwall. What causes this to happen?

• compressional forces

• tension pulling the plates together

• strike-slip faults creating earthquakes

• None of these cause this to happen.

Which of the following is an example of a strike-slip fault, mentioned in the video?

• New Madrid faultline in Missouri

• San Andreas faultline in California

• Yellowstone Basin faultline in Wyoming and Montana

• None of these are found in the video.

Which of the following describe folded mountains?

• They contain a combination of anticlines and synclines.

• The crust deforms and bends but it does not break.

• The folds can bend upward and form mountains.

• All of these describe folded mountains.

When measuring the strength of an earthquake, the intensity is called the ________.

• impact

• mass measurement

• magnitude

• intensification
