Academic Earth Science NB# Name __________________ Vocabulary List #5- Layer of Earth/Faults & Folds 1. the boundary between the mantle and the crust Moho 2. the solid, top most part of the Earth (the plates) lithosphere 3. the layer directly under the lithosphere (It goes into the mantle) It has plasticity Asthenosphere 4. The type of stress that is pulling rocks apart. tension 5. A crack in a rock. fracture 6. The wall above the fault Hanging wall 7. Due to compression, the HW moves up relative to the FW Reverse fault 8. Compression causes the HW to slip up and over the FW Thrust fault 9. A bend in a rock. fold 10. An upward fold.
