Answer:

C. Faults form in the lithosphere.

E. Plates slide in the opposite direction

Step-by-step explanation:

Transform boundaries otherwise known as transform plate boundaries is a term that refers to a place where plates slide past each other. During this process, the lithosphere is neither formed nor destroyed, rather thin linear rift valleys are formed. Most transform boundaries occur on the seafloor. Transform boundaries have the capacity of causing intense earthquakes with an adverse effect on the ecosystem. An example of transform boundaries is California's San Andrea.
