What is the major difference between joints and faults? (Spts)

a. Joints are ductile deformation while faults are brittle deformation

b. Joints have no movement associated with them but faults do

c. Joints are formed by compression while faults are formed by tension

d. Joints can occur in any type of rock but faults can only occur in sedimentary rocks than does ductile 

Answer:

Joints have no movement associated with it while fault has. In the initial case both develop from a fracture. But in case of joint two blocks get seperated from each other but don't show any movement/displacement but in case of fault they move past to each other so slip/displacement is clearly found here.
