Which type of stress causes fault-block mountains?

compression

shearing

subduction

tension

D. tension

Thats the answer

Answer: Tension.

Explanation: The mountains with fault-block cause tension that in geological terms is the force applied externally and that causes a displacement that occurs from it in opposite directions. This tension acts on the mountain, which makes the rocks that are there tend to move. When this tension is lasting, the deformation of the rocks could be permanent.
