"Major Faults" has the answer "RIFTS." In geological terms, a rift is a significant fault or crack in the Earth's surface caused by tectonic forces. These major faults occur when the Earth's crust is pulled apart, leading to the formation of rift valleys or other large-scale geological structures. Rifts can be found both on land and under the ocean and are often associated with volcanic activity and earthquakes.
They play a crucial role in the process of plate tectonics, influencing the formation of new crust and the reshaping of the Earth's landscape over geological time scales. Rifts can also metaphorically describe major divisions or splits in other contexts, such as social or political disagreements, emphasizing the profound and often disruptive nature of such separations.
