A phacolith is a plutonic intrusion concordant to the bedding plane of these structures.
A phacolith is a plutonic intrusion concordant to the bedding plane of these structures. Parasitic examples of these structures are classified as S or Z depending on whether they have clockwise or counterclockwise apparent vergence. In an anisotropic medium, these structures can be created by flexural flow and flexural slip. The limbs of these structures are linked by their hinge line. If the axial plane of these structures is in a horizontal position, parallel with the limbs, they are termed recumbent; less intense deformation can create overturned examples. Compressional stress can create (*) anticline and syncline examples of these structures, and other examples include concentric, chevron, and kinked bands. For 10 points, name these structures in which flat strata are bent or curved as a result of plastic deformation under great stress.
