What type of boundary causes faulting?
Transform boundaries cause fault lines or faults.
What type of fault causes earthquakes?
Subduction Zones and Transform faults can produce Earthquakes.
Which type of fault is likely to form in an area where rock layer have been folded?
Folding is usually the result of compressional stress. This may also cause thrust / reverse faults.
Are tsunamis also called cyclones?
No. Tsunamis are not related to cyclones in any way. However a typhoon is a type of cyclone.
Did Mississippi get hit by a tsunamis fron hurricane Katrina?
No. There were large waves, but waves produce by hurricanes and other storms, not matter how big, are not tsunamis. Tsunamis are a very different type of wave.
What type of boundary causes faulting?
Transform boundaries cause fault lines or faults.
What type of stress faults produces reverse faults?
compression
What type of boundary makes strike-slip faults?
Transform boundaries like the one on the California cost cause strike slip faults. As the two plates move in opposite direction the earthquake occurs.
What type of earthquakes cause widespread damage and loss of lives?
Strong ones at or above 6 on the earthquake scale. Earthquakes centered close to human connerbations. Earthquakes that cause Tsunamis.
When two normal faults cause valleys to drop down on either side of a block of rock what type of landform results?
mountains

Which type of fault is under compression?
Reverse and thrust faults are both under compressive stress.
What type of faults are associated with fault-block mountains?
Yes reverse faults create mountains. this happens by 2 plates collide.
