Bed 3 is the oldest bed and bed 8 is the youngest 8 6 16) The fold axis is 17) This is a map of what type of structure? (0.5pt) 18) List the factors that determines the type of structure. (0.5pt) --? (0.5pt) b) non-plunging a) plunging a) non-plunging syncline b non-plunging anticline c) plunging syncline d) plunging anticline a) the shape of the different layers and the strike and dip symbols b) the age relationship (oldest on the outside, youngest on the inside) c) the age relationship (youngest on the outside, oldest on the inside) d) a and b e) a and c stress. (0.5pt) This structure results from a) tension b) ductile (plastic) c) compression te 19) ) shear plate boundaries. (0.5pt) This type of structure typically forms at a) convergent 20) b) divergent c) transform 21) The fold is an example of strain? (0.5pt b) elastic c) tension d) brittle e) ductile (plastic) a) compression

Explanation / Answer

16 The fold axis is plunging. In this the fold axis is not horizontal.

17. The map is of plunging syncline structure. The youngest layer is at the core of the structure and the oldest layer is on the outer.

18. d. ie the shape of the layers and the age relationship(oldest outside and youngest inside.
19. Compression.
