A lot of beaches, particularly on the east coast and Gulf states, are not permanent fixtures. Coastlines are very dynamic (ever-

changing), and rising seas over time can wash much of that sand away. However, sometimes, sand can be washed away much more quickly when a large storm wreaks havoc on a coastline. Hurricane Sandy did just that to the East Coast a handful of years ago. Rebuilding from Sandy has been taking place at a very fast rate along the eastern seaboard, but this hurricane did take it's share of sand away, particularly from Coney Island. How does that sand come back

(1) Plate tectonics envisions the Earth divided into dozens of lithospheric plates that move about and interact with one another
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Transform boundary.

Explanation:

The three main configurations of the tectonic plates are the divergent limits, convergent limits and transform boundary.

Transform boundary occurs when two plates move towards each other, colliding and forming cracks in both. These cracks do not cause the destruction of these plates, so it does not promote the creation of other plates, but it does cause flaws, which can even generate flaws on the earth's surface. An example of this occurred with the Pacific plates and the North American plate that caused the San Andres fault in California.
