Question

what is the difference between faults and folds? explain how they are fomed
​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Folds are formed when heat and pressure is applied to the rock. The higher the temperature, the more pliable rocks become. Folds are more likely to occur when the deformation caused by the compression is applied slowly. ... Faults are defined as the displacement of rock that were once connected along a fault line.

Answer 2

Answer:

The difference between folding and faulting is that folding is the pressure of converging plates causing the crust to fold and buckle, resulting in the creation of mountains and hills and faulting is where cracks in the earth's rock are created because of different movement of tectonic plates.
