Question

Which of the following is most likely to occur at a transform boundary? Faults. Seafloor spreading. Volcanic eruptions. Subduction zones.

Answer 1

Hi !

Transform plate boundaries are location where two plates slide past one another. The fracture zone that forms a transform plate boundary is known as a tranform fault. Most transform faults are found in the ocean basin and connect offsets in the mid-ocean ridges.

Answer 2

Option (1)

Explanation:

In a transform plate boundary, the two plates slide past one another. The plates neither create a new crust nor destroy the colliding crust. Plate conservation generally takes place along this type of boundary. They are characterized by deep faults that releases a huge amount of energy during a collision, as a result of which shallow focus earthquakes are generated that are very destructive in nature.

For example, the San Andreas fault that is formed due to the sharing of a transform type of plate boundary between the Pacific Plate and the North American plate.

Thus, the correct answer is option (1).
