Where do most transform faults occur?
Most present-day faults occur along boundaries. The three types of geologic boundaries are transform boundaries, divergent boundaries and convergent boundaries.
What are the three types of plate boundaries and what types of faults occur there?
a. Transform:transform boundaries or motion creates strike-slip faults.b. Convergent:convergent boundaries or motion creates reverse faults.c. Divergent:divergent motion creates a normal fault.
What kind of boundaries can cause earthquakes and volcanoes?
Earthquakes can occur at any type of plate boundary, but the most powerful earthquakes tend to occur at convergent boundaries and at transform boundaries.
Do explosive eruptions occur more near convergent boundary or divergent boundary?
Convergent boundaries.
What type of plate boundary does compression occur?
Converging Plate Boundaries
Where do most present day faults occur?
Most present-day faults occur along boundaries. The three types of geologic boundaries are transform boundaries, divergent boundaries and convergent boundaries.
Does divergent motion create reverse faults?
No. They occur at convergent boundaries.
A what fault generally occurs at a convergent boundary?
reverse
What Types of landforms made by reverse faults?
Landforms created at reverse faults include mountain ranges and volcanoes. Reverse faults occur at convergent boundaries and the type of convergent boundary determines the landform created.
Where do most transform faults occur?
Most present-day faults occur along boundaries. The three types of geologic boundaries are transform boundaries, divergent boundaries and convergent boundaries.
Where do the majority faults occur?
The majority of faults occur in the plate boundaries.
Which type of boundary produces strike-slip faults?
Slip-strike faults always occur at transform boundaries. The San Andreas Fault is a famous transform boundary in located in southern California.
What types of boundaries do subduction zones occur?
Convergent Boundaries!
What type of fault is at a transform plate boundary?
Transform faults are strike-slip faults that occur at the boundary between two plates of the earth's crust and do not produce or destroy lithosphere. Divergent faults produce new sea floor, while convergent faults occur when two plates collide underneath and create underground mountains.
Where do convergent boundaries occur?
mountain ranges
Convergent boundaries occur where?
mountain ranges
Where do majority of faults occurs?
The majority of faults occur in the plate boundaries.
