Answer:
Reverse Fault is the right answer. Unlike normal faults, a reverse fault occurs when the hanging wall rises in relation to the footwall. The areas undergoing compression are prone to the reverse fault. The fault planes are composed of sand layers but often they are very stiff. The walls of the reverse fault are sometimes tilted towards left but normally they are vertical.
