Question
- choose the best answer.
which kind of boundary created the san andreas fault?
convergent boundary
transform boundary
divergent boundary
- choose the best answer.
stress created as two plates slide past each other on a ___ boundary can release energy as earthquakes.
transform
divergent
convergent
subduction
The San Andreas Fault is a well - known example of a transform boundary. At a transform boundary, tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally. This sliding motion can build up stress, and when released, it results in earthquakes. For question 6, the San Andreas Fault is created by a transform boundary. For question 7, when plates slide past each other on a transform boundary, stress is released as earthquakes.
