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.
A divergent boundary is different than a convergent boundary in that?
Divergent and convergent boundaries are two of three primary Tectonic plate boundaries, the third being Transform boundaries. These plates change the surface of the Earth. As divergent boundaries pull apart, layers of new crust build up on both sides of the breaking land mass, causing a rift/divide. The surrounding body of water, if one is present, eventually fills this space. Convergent boundaries are the result of Earth's plates clashing and one going beneath the other. Instead of crust building it is eliminated and returned to the Earth to be recycled for use again. A term applied to this occurrence is Subduction Zone; often seen with convergent boundaries are the formation of volcanos and mountains.
How does the movement of tectonic plates form ocean trenches?
The tectonic plates, oceanic-to-oceanic convergent boundaries or oceanic-continental convergent boundaries create the ocean trenches. One of the plates that is denser than the other is pushed downwards into the mantle of the Earth by the lighter, and less dense plate. This creates the trench due to the downward motion of the plate. The denser plate's gravity will pull the rest of the plate down with it with time. Divergent Boundaries underwater is only present at oceanic ridges. This creates the seafloor spreading. The hot magma that may be in an area pushes the older rocks (part of the plate) away from each other, causing a spreading motion.
What types of stress are present at divergent plate boundaries?
divergent plate boundaries are associated with normal faulting. Thus there is a horizontal least compressive stress, vertical most compressive stress and a intermediate horizontal stress. All stresses are orthoganal to each other.
What are Two famous divergent boundaries?
the most famous divergent fault is the san Andreas faultEDIT: Actually, the San Andreas Fault is a Transform boundary. A Transform Boundary is when two plates are rubbing against each other while going opposite ways. A Divergent Boundary is when two plates move away from each other. Scientists have not pinpointed and named a Divergent Boundary but Divergent Boundaries usually occur under water in the sea, also called Sea Floor Spreading.

The change from pangaea to the present configuration of the continents involved?
The breakup of Pangaea involved the gradual drifting apart of the tectonic plates carrying the continents. This movement created new ocean basins and shifted landmasses to their current positions over millions of years. Today's configuration of continents is a result of this ongoing process of plate tectonics.
What plate boundaries are present in Hawaii?

Leadership is best described as?
My idea is, Leadership is the ability to have other people follow you by the example that you present.
Where did leadership start?
Leadership has been present since the beginning of time. In the most basic organization, a family, there are parents who provide leadership for the children.
How many African leaders were present when the current boundaries of the countries of Sub-Saharan were determined?
No leaders were present. The boundaries were decided centuries ago by the leaders of the European countries that conquered most of Africa.
Where did Napoleon fight the Russians and the Austrians at in 1805?
At Austerlitz in the present day Czech Republic.
Why did the original boundaries of Maryland present a problem to colonists?
The original boundaries of Maryland overlapped with those of Pennsylvania, leading to territorial disputes and conflicting land claims between the two colonies. This caused tension and conflict between colonists and created uncertainty over land ownership.
What is the leadership style required for present competitive business?
There are many different types of leadership displayed in business. There is no set leadership style that will guarantee success in business.
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 must be present for a group to be considered a nation?
C. A political entity or physical boundaries
