Question

what type of fault is shown below? basin reverse fault normal fault dome right lateral strike - slip fault

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

A normal fault occurs when the hanging wall moves downward relative to the footwall due to tensional forces. In the image, the displacement pattern aligns with the characteristics of a normal fault. Basins and domes are structural features (not faults). A reverse fault has the hanging wall moving up (compression - related), and a right - lateral strike - slip fault has horizontal movement (side - to - side).

Answer:

Normal fault
