    The answer is Compressional.

    Compression is a stress that pushes and squeezes rocks together. This causes the rock to bend or fracture.

    Tension is a stress that pulls rocks apart. Shear stress occurs when the rocks are moving parallel but opposite of each other pushing rocks at different directions. Gravitational stress is stress induced by gravity.
