Answer:

B. Transform

Explanation:

Transform boundaries are the place where two tectonic plates meet. It is the site of intense geological activity. Earthquakes originate in the transform boundaries where the two tectonic plates move past each other. The movement is regulated by friction between the plates. If the moving plates overcome the frictional resistance and exhibit sudden movement, there is an earthquake.
