Question

study the image.
which phrase describes this plate boundary?
○ does not occur in oceans
○ may form rift valleys
○ is a type of convergent boundary
○ is a region where earthquakes occur

Explanation:

1. Analyze each option:

• "does not occur in oceans": Plate boundaries (like transform) can occur in oceans, so this is wrong.
• "may form rift valleys": Rift valleys form at divergent boundaries, the image shows a transform boundary (plates sliding past), so this is wrong.
• "is a type of convergent boundary": The image shows plates sliding past (transform), not converging, so this is wrong.
• "is a region where earthquakes occur": Transform boundaries (where plates slide past) are earthquake - prone regions.

Answer:

is a region where earthquakes occur
