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.
