Domes resemble anticlines, but the beds dip uniformly in all directions away from the center of the structure.  Domes are caused by compression and uplift. Basins resemble synclines, but the beds dip uniformly in all directions toward the center of the structure.  Basins are caused by compression and downwarping.
