Chapter 6.4B, Problem 4A
Summary Introduction
Whether the Black Hills of western South Dakota is a dome or a basin.
Introduction:
Domes are the folds that are produced by the up-warping of the sedimentary rocks. They have a circular appearance. The domes are formed by anticlines. However, the folds that are produced by the down-warping of the sedimentary rocks are called basins. They are produced by synclines.
