Question
where does shearing often occur?
o along a normal fault
o along a reverse fault
o at a transform boundary
o at a divergent boundary
Brief Explanations
Shearing is a type of stress where rocks slide past each other horizontally. Transform boundaries are where two tectonic plates slide horizontally past one another, causing shearing. Normal faults are related to tensional stress, reverse faults to compressional stress, and divergent boundaries involve plates moving apart.
