Assignment: Plates and Structural Geography Exploration Geologic maps have special symbols that tell where faults and folds exist. Many maps also have cross sections drawn. A cross section shows how the rocks are deformed and makes it easier to understand the forces involved. Use this geologic map to complete the following investigation. Geologic Structure from Maps: Part 1 Geologic Map 1. Study the map and cross section. There are five rock layers shown, A through E. Color each layer a different color. Use the letters in the layers to help you. 2. Sediments are almost always deposited in flat layers. Does it appear that forces in the Earth affected the rock layers in this region? What clues do you have? 3. Did pushing (compression), pulling (tension), or sideways forces (shear) in the rock layers produce the folds and faults? © K12 Inc. AV011413 Geologic Structure from Maps: Part 2 Online photos Now view page and photos in the lesson on the pages following the assignment page. The pictures are of faults around the world. See if you are able to tell which types of faults caused the rocks to form each structure. You know how forces on rocks can cause rocks to bend or fold, or under some conditions, cause the rocks to fracture. Forces can also move rock up and down. You can use what you know to look at your community and describe what forces may have caused a certain landform to look a certain way. Use the online photos to answer the following questions: Look at the photograph of faulted rock layers in British Columbia, Canada. 4. Do the rocks appear to have been pushed together, pulled apart, or to have slid past each other to make this formation? What type of fault is this? (4 points) Look at the photograph of a fault found in Klamath Falls, Oregon. 5. Was the rock pulled apart, pushed together, or did it slide past another rock to make this formation? What type of fault is this? (4 points) © K12 Inc. AV011413
