Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is - strike-slip fault

Explanation:

Strike-slip faults or tectonics are the faults which are formed when the huge rocks move from one another laterally or horizontally only within the earth's crust. San Andreas faults are the one major example of such fault.

This type of tectonics is formed due to the shearing force or shearing stress that occurs due to compression which is also generated energy in the opposite direction of the compression force.

Thus, the correct answer is - strike-slip fault.
