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.

[rm.02]an igneous rock interacts with wind and water over a long period of time. which of these is most likely formed as a resul
kirill115 [55]
Sediments is most likely to be as a result of the interaction.

As wind and water are both weathering agents that cause the fragments of rocks to loosen,under the pull of gravity the fragments will fall off and sediments will be formed.

Reason why these are incorrect:

Lava and magma- Rocks has to be molten under an extremely high temperature to turn back into magma of lava,as the high
temperature is not present,the formation is impossible.

Metamorphic rock- It requires either high temperature or high pressure to lead to the formation of metamorphic rock, however the conditions are not present, thus this is incorrect.

Details of weathering:
The water would seep into the joints of the igneous rock as it is well-jointed,and carry out chemical weathering.
The materials such as feldspar and mica are nit weather-resistance hence easily loosen after weathering take place,causing the fragments to fall off.

Hope it helps!
