Question
which type of basin forms at transform boundaries?
rift
wedge
arc
strike - slip
Brief Explanations
Transform boundaries involve horizontal - sliding motion of tectonic plates. Strike - slip basins form at transform boundaries due to the lateral movement and associated stress. Rift basins form at divergent boundaries, wedge basins are related to accretionary processes near convergent boundaries, and arc basins are associated with volcanic arcs at convergent boundaries.
