    1. Option D is not correct If dip slip will be equal to net slip then there will be an offset of the bed on either sides of the fault because strata is dipping towards north. There is no offset shown in the diagram hence option D will be Elliminated. 2. Option A is correct If the slip will be parallel to the bedding trace in any kind of fault; there will be no apparent movement due to faulting. Which means strata will seem undisturbed. 3. Yes, option b can also be a correct option. If the fault will have no strike-slip or dip-slip then strata will look like as undisturbed as shown in the diagram.
