Answer:

B. both earthquakes and volcanoes are common.

Explanation:

Transform Plate Boundaries are locations where two tectonic plates slide against one another. There are three types of plate boundaries: convergent, divergent, and transform.

When the plates rub against each other, huge stresses can cause portions of the rock to break, resulting in earthquakes. Places where these breaks occur are called faults.

A well-known example of a transform fault is the San Andreas Fault in California and the Alpine Fault of New Zealand.

Volcanism occurs at convergent boundaries (subduction zones) and at divergent boundaries (mid-ocean ridges, continental rifts), but not commonly at transform boundaries.

Plate boundaries are also associated with the creation of other topographic features such as mountains, volcanoes, mid-ocean ridges, and oceanic trenches. However, except there is a deep break into the earth's crust, the volcanoes are not noticeable.

This is the name for a category of trade barriers that a country may impose on another country or countries.
Flauer [41]
These are all matching questions
1. Sanction. Countries may place restrictions between each other if they can not come to an agreement that benefits both.
2. Embargo. Example- The U.S. and Cuba have had an embargo. Neither country will trade with the other.
3. Quota. This allows only a certain amount of a product to come into a place. This may be a good thing if a substance is illegal or if the substance or product could somehow be used for the wrong reasons.
4. Subsidy. Sometimes the government will help farmer's by giving them money to plant certain crops. This helps both  the economy and the farmer.
5. (Protective)Tariff
6. Boycott. People could boycott a store, if they do not agree with company's beliefs. An example would be Target allowing Transgenders into women's restrooms.
