Question

the san andreas fault in california is the perfect example of what happens when two plates slide past one another. what type of plate boundary is this describing? (1 point) transform boundary convergent boundary divergent boundary divergent boundary

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

A transform boundary is where two tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally. The San Andreas Fault in California is a classic example of this type of plate boundary. In contrast, a convergent boundary is where plates collide (one may be forced under another), and a divergent boundary is where plates move apart (new crust is formed). Since the question describes plates sliding past one another, the correct answer is transform boundary.

Answer:

transform boundary
