Folding – the bending of rocks in the Earth as a result of compressional tectonic forces such as continental collisions. Occurs at depth in the Earth. ... Faulting – fracturing of rocks in the Earth causing breakage and slip parallel to the fracture. Caused by compressional, extensional and shear forces.

This is called folding. Folding can be expressed throughout many ways and definitions. An anticline is an up fold in the rock layers. A syncline is a down fold (Spaulding and Namowitz 294). Anticlines can be thought of as domes, while synclines as basins.
