Answer :
Word Count : 561
Faults are fractures or zones of fractures in the Earth’s crust along which there has been relative movement of the blocks on either side. On the basis of the geometry of movement and the relative displacement of the hanging wall and footwall blocks, faults are classified into different types. Geometrical classification focuses on the direction of movement with respect to the fault plane and provides insight into the stress regime responsible for faulting. The simplest geometrical classification is based on the direction of displacement relative to the fault plane. Dip-slip faults are those __________ _________ ___ ____ ___ _________ ______ ______ ___.
