The San Andreas fault is a transform fault. The map below shows a student’s approximation of where the fault line crosses through the United States. Students were asked to make maps predicting which way land would most likely move over thousands of years. Which map best predicts the likely movement of land along the fault line over thousands of years?

Answer:

Hello. You did not present the map to which this question refers, however, we can say that the earth is likely to move along the fault line.

Step-by-step explanation:

Geological faults can create changes along the relief, producing mountains, escapes, depressions, among other changes. However, geological faults are not able to modify the movement of the earth and its elements, since the tectonic plates are able to move, causing the earth to move along the fault.
