Question

  1. choose which type of boundary created each feature.

san andreas fault
divergent boundary
transform boundary
convergent boundary

  1. choose which type of boundary created each feature.

grand tetons (mountains)
divergent boundary
convergent boundary
transform boundary

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • San Andreas Fault: Transform boundaries are where two tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally. The San Andreas Fault is a classic example of a transform boundary, as the Pacific Plate and the North - American Plate slide past each other here.
  • Grand Tetons (mountains): Convergent boundaries are where two tectonic plates move towards each other. Mountain ranges like the Grand Tetons can be formed at convergent boundaries (in this case, due to processes related to the collision and uplift of crustal blocks, which is a result of tectonic forces associated with convergent - like behaviors in a broader sense of crustal deformation).

Answer:

  1. B. transform boundary
  2. B. convergent boundary
