You are dropped off by helicopter at a site on the land. You are told that it is a plate boundary, most immediately, you feel a weak earthquake. You look around and note the absence of volcanoes, but you notice an offset stream channel, and find a vertical fault with two kinds of attack on either side of it. What sort of plate boundary are you most likely on? 1) Divergent 2) Convergent 3) Transform 4) Plate interior (hot spot)

Respuesta :

Answer: Option 3

Explanation:

Transform boundaries are the boundaries where the tectonic plates slide past each other and this is the reason why there is no land is created or destroyed on a transform plate boundary.

Normally the transform boundaries are formed on ocean sea floors and here the plates slide side ways. Volcanic eruptions are not a common feature of such boundaries and earthquakes can be felt here but such earth quakes are weak in intensity.
