Question

What type of plate boundary (divergent, convergent, or transform) is typically

Answer 1

Answer:

transform

Explanation:

The type of plate boundary associated with sliding or shear forces is a transform plate boundary.

Two or more plates slides laterally past one another due to presence of shear forces acting on them.

• In this margin, there is often an occurrence of earthquake.
• For a divergent margin, plates move apart and away from one another.
• This leads to the creation or formation of new crusts.
• At a convergent margin, two plates collides, a plate can subduct under another or both can become uplifted.
• Tectonic margins are known for their various activities.
