The largest geographical fault in California is the San Andres fault. This large fault is responsible for the largest quakes to hit the state. The San Jacinto, Elsinore, and Imperial are smaller parallel faults to the San Andres.
This is the San Andreas fault line, which runs for a length of approximately 1,300 km through California and south through Baja California in Mexico.
The San Andreas fault with a length of 800 km is the largest earthquake fault in California.

A huge fault line is the San Andreas Fault.
There are many faults in California. The two most significant faults are the San Andreas Fault and the Hayward Fault.
Perhaps the best known is the San Andreas Fault.
One is the San Andreas Fault.
The San Andreas Fault.
It is the San Andreas Fault.
Some examples of strike-slip faults include the San Andreas Fault in California, the Anatolian Fault in Turkey, and the Great Glen Fault in Scotland.
Deep furrows in the ground or ocean floor are faults. San Andreas fault in California is a prime example, having displacement hundreds of kilometers long. Two kinds of faults are dip-slip faults and strike-slip faults.
Geological faults are planar fractures. More information can be found on sites such as Wikipedia, as well as the California Geological Survey website.
Take the san Andreas fault for example. It is located in California.
No. Your terminology is close but not quite right. The three main types of faults are normal faults, reverse faults, and strike-slip faults. Strike-slip faults may also be called transform faults.
strike-slip faults where they move laterally
California is not going to sink into the ocean. The faults in California are strike-slip faults where they move laterally.
247 faults or fault systems as of December 30, 2008.
addition is the answer
features
California's area is 163,696 square miles.
The movement of the Pacific and North American plates produced California's major geological features. These features include faults, volcanoes, mountain ranges, and basins.
Because they realy dont create any prominent geographical or geological feature/landform.
