Question
The North American plate and the Pacific plate are sliding past each other in opposite directions (at the San Andreas fault), this is called a ________________ boundary.
- Convergent
- Transform
- Divergent
- Rift valley
The correct answer is: Transform
A transform plate boundary is created by two plates sliding past one another. The San Andreas fault zone, which spans under the ocean, is home to one of the most well-known transform plate borders.
