    Answer:

    Along boundaries plates are brittle and the crust fractures (breaks and cracks) forming Faults

    Explanation:

    Brittle material are substances that looks hard but can be easily broken by strain. Brittle deformation leads to crack and fracture of the material involve. Brittle crust lacks elastic ability , elasticity in this rocks are almost absent.

    Fractures and cracks in rocks form fault. Fault is a discontinuity in rocks with an appreciable displacement. Fault is a displacement in rocks relative to one part. Generally, Fault occur when brittle rock fracture or crack, the fractured rocks move relative to one another.

    Differential stress can cause rocks to fracture. If that part of the crust lacks ductility the stress on the rock will cause a brittle deformation. The brittle deformation causes fracture(breaks and cracks) leading to structure like Faults and Joints.
