Question

Drag the tiles to the correct box and identify the land formation associated with each type of fault.

CHOICES:
East African Rift Valley
San Andreas Fault
the Himalayas

Answer 1

Picture 1- San Andreas fault

Picture 2- The Himalaya

Picture 3- East African Rift valley

Step-by-step explanation:

The San Andreas fault is one of the famous example of transform plate boundary. The Pacific plate and the North American plate shares a transform boundary, where these two plates slide past one another. Numerous shallow focus earthquakes have generated due to this fault that has caused a lot of damage to the properties.

The Himalaya is formed due to the subduction of the denser Indo-Australian below the less denser Eurasian plate. It is marked by intense folding and reverse faulting that place in this region. Earthquakes of various magnitudes occurs in this region.

The East African rift valley refers to the narrow rift that formed in the eastern part of the African plate where the African plate has divided into 2 smaller plates known as the Somali Plate and the Nubian Plate respectively. They are moving at a rate of about 6–7 mm every year.

Answer 2

Answer: the first one is image is the San Andreas Fault

the second image is the Himalayas

the third image is East African Rift Valley

Explanation: the answer is the next one in the same order the first one is image is the San Andreas Fault

the second image is the Himalayas

the third image is East African Rift Valley

for each type of fault is important to keep in mind the movement of the land, which give as an specific formation, it depend of the cause of the movement ,

in some case the movement of the plate cause the land formation,

in another cases we will find that the explosion of internal volcano or when the magma of the center of the earth is moving then cause a land formation.
