Answer:

Transform boundaries means that the Earth’s tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally along transform or strike-slip faults. The 2 transform boundaries are divergent and convergent.

Divergent plate boundary: when the plates are moving far away from each other.....← →

Convergent plate boundary: when the plates start to collide with each other......→ ←

Hope this helped!

Answer/Explanation

Transform boundaries are places where plates slide sideways past each other. Many transform boundaries are found on the sea floor, where they connect segments of diverging mid-ocean ridges. California's San Andreas fault is a transform boundary.
