Question

Which statements describe transform boundaries? A) Rift valleys are formed. B) Mountains are created. C) Faults form in the lithosphere. D) Plates move toward each other.

Answer 1

Answer

C) Faults form in the lithosphere

Answer 2

Answer:

C) Faults form in the lithosphere.

Explanation:

Faults form in lithosphere is part of transform boundaries because the plates simply slide past each other without causing any change to the lithosphere (i.e it is neither created nor destroyed) which is why transform boundaries are also sometimes referenced when we speak about phenomena related to when plates slide in opposite directions.
