North Anatolian Fault zone

Target entity: North Anatolian Fault zone
Context triple: [Sea of Marmara, locatedOn, North Anatolian Fault zone]

• A. Septentrional-Oriente fault zone
  The Septentrional-Oriente fault zone is a major strike-slip fault system in the northern Caribbean region that accommodates tectonic motion between the North American and Caribbean plates and is a significant source of regional earthquakes.
• B. Heezen Fault Zone
  The Heezen Fault Zone is a major undersea geological fault system named in honor of American oceanographer Bruce C. Heezen, recognized for his pioneering work in mapping the ocean floor.
• C. Garlock Fault
  The Garlock Fault is a major left-lateral strike-slip fault in southern California that forms the northern boundary of the Mojave Desert and plays a key role in the region’s complex tectonic deformation.
• D. Southern Uplands Fault
  The Southern Uplands Fault is a major geological fault line in Scotland that marks the boundary between the Central Lowlands and the Southern Uplands, playing a key role in the region’s tectonic and landscape history.
• E. Queen Charlotte Fault
  The Queen Charlotte Fault is a major transform fault off the Pacific Northwest coast that marks the tectonic boundary between the Pacific and North American Plates and is a significant source of earthquakes in the region.
• F. None of above. chosen
• G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
