The question is asking for the types of fault that exist. Faults are extend breaks in rock bodies which is marked by displacement and discontinuity of strats on both side of a particular surface. The displacement is as a result of rock mass movement. There are three types of faults, these are:strike-slip, normal and thrust faults.
