The correct answer is transform.

Shaking of earth's surface is called as earthquake. The earthquakes results in generation of seismic waves. The earthquake that occur along boundaries is called shallow focus earthquake. They originate in parallel strike -slip faults, transform faults. The resistance due to friction in the fault system overcomes and plates starts to move suddenly, this results in earthquake.

Tropical rainforests is an area of vegetation comprising of predominantly trees. Trees play a major part in sustaining the environment, and hence, the destruction of trees will result in certain negative effects or impacts on the environment.

One of the effects of destroying rainforests according to the options in the question, is the reduction in the amount of water vapor. Trees in rainforests contribute to the addition of water vapor to the atmosphere via transpiration (loss of water through their stomata). Hence, destruction of tropical rain forests will reduce the amount of water vapor.
