Plates slip past each other at the boundary. The San Andreas fault is a continental transform fault that runs along the spine of California from the Salton Sea in SoCal to Cape Mendocino in NorCal. It marks the tectonic plate boundary between the Pacific and North American plates which are constantly moving past each other. The fault type the San Andreas has is a strike-slip, which means the plates move past each other.

Temperatures at high latitudes are usually lower than temperatures near the equator because _____.
Virty [35]
Temperatures at high latitudes are usually lower than temperatures near the equator because <span>the solar energy must be spread over a larger area.
</span>
<span>In the tropics, places near the equator, temperature is high because there is a net energy surplus. Net energy surplus occurs because the amount of sunlight absorbed is larger than the amount of heat radiated.

In the polar regions, places near the pole or high latitudes, temperature is low because there is an annual energy deficit. The annual energy deficit occurs because the amount of heat radiated to space is larger than the amount of absorbed sunlight.</span>

________ is one of the two major flow mechanisms in a glacier.
Liula [17]

<span>Internal deformation is one of the major mechanisms through which a glacier flows. This process occurs due to the overlying weight of the glacier that leads to the deformation of ice crystals. Since the pressure is highest at the glacier bed, this process takes place at that point. The mechanism of movement is usually determined by the type of glacier.</span>
