Quaquaversal vs. Centroclinal


In geological terms, quaquaversal and centroclinal are very similar, but they are actually exact opposites.  A quaquaversal structure will slope outward and downward from a central point, creating a domelike shape.  Flip that around, and a centroclinal structure is dipping inward toward the central point.  Try building those with Legos.
