Question

1)Fault block mountains are the result of (tension, directed compression, uniform compression) appliecd to a portion of the crust which is (brittle, ductile, fluid). Underline the correct answers. 2) The structure illustrated to the right is the result of (tension, directed compression, uniform compression) applied to a portion of the crust which is (brittle, ductile, fluid). It occurs on a large scale in (rift zones, subduction zones, twilight zones). Underline the correct answers. 3a) The map to the right illustrates a series of metamorphic rocks labeled 1 to 4. Going from west to east the rock sequence is: gneiss, schist, phyllite, slate phyllite, schist, slate, gneiss slate, phyllite, schist, gneiss T none of the above Underline the correct answer. o. 3b) The foliation within these rocks is trending: north-south east-west Underline the correct answer. 3c) The foliation is a result of (directed compression, tension, rifting) applied in an (north-south, east- west) direction. Underline the correct answers. 4) On the map to the right, the black triangles represent volcanoes. The stippled pattern represents: folded mountains complex mountains folded and complex mountains fault-block mountains Underline the correct answer.
