The three events that can be observed at transform plate boundaries are the earthquakes, faults, and formation of mountains.

Explanation:

The transform plate boundaries are the boundaries between two plates that are sliding past each other. This means that there is no collision  between the plates, as they move in opposite direction, so they just rub off one another. That rubbing between them actually causes lot of stress to the crust. The stress on the crust manifests itself in multiple ways, like the creation of faults, common earthquakes, as well as the formation of mountains in some cases.

  • The faults are the trademark of the transform plate boundaries. They form when the crust is lengthening, so a gap opens up, while one side moves up, and the other side moves down, or one side moves up or down, while the other is static.
  • The faults actually manage to create small to medium size mountains in some cases. That can happen when one of the sides of the faults moves significantly up, while the other side moves significantly down, thus forming a mountain and a valley.
  • Because of the constant stress on the crust, it breaks, and when it does, the crust from above is falling in the gap and adjusts itself, resulting in release of lot of power which creates the earthquakes.

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Earthquakes, Faults, and Island chains. </em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

There are three types of plate boundary such as Constructive, destructive and transform plate boundary. The primary landform in the Transform boundary are faults which is caused by the Earthquakes. Many transform boundary landforms are in the ocean floor which is responsible for the island formation. Fault is found due to the two process such as Ridge push and ridge pull. Transform boundary neither creates and nor destroys any land in the region.

Converging plate boundaries. continent to continent plate boundary converging if you want to be more specific.
to converge means to bring something together, that's how I always remembered. Transform boundaries move side to side, and are the reason for mainly fault lines, such as the San Andreas Fault in California. All plate boundaries do occur at subduction zones.

In order for sediment to be transformed into rock, what processes must take place?
Paladinen [302]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option D. In order for sediment to be transformed into rock, compaction and cementation processes should take place. After these processes, the sedimentary sequence has changed into a sedimentary rock. Hope this answers the question.

Explain how the three major types of forests differ in their climate and vegetation. Why is biodiversity so high in tropical rai
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

Tropical rain Forest

- High rainfall , warm temperature, high humidity

- rich biodiversity

- broad green leaves, all round year green.

- active decomposition.

The temperate deciduous forest

- Cooler temperature, lower rate decomposition.

-Coastal coniferous forests or temperate rain forests are found in scatted coastal temperate areas with ample rainfall or moisture from dense ocean fogs.

Boreal Forest or Taiga

- Coniferous Trees

-These forests are found just south of the arctic tundra in northern regions. In this subarctic climate, winters are long and extremely cold.

- Store house of nutrients because of very slow decomposition rate and  they accumulate a thick layer of slowly decaying leaf litter
