Question
which forms as a result of compressional stress?
anticline and syncline
normal fault
strike - slip fault
fault - block mountain
Brief Explanations
Compressional stress causes rock layers to bend and fold. Anticlines and synclines are types of folds formed due to compressional forces. Normal faults are formed by tensional stress, strike - slip faults by shear stress, and fault - block mountains are formed due to movement along normal faults related to tensional forces.
