What kind of faults would you expect to find in the mid Atlantic Ridge?
Transform and normal faults form along mid-ocean ridges such as the Mid-Atlantic ridge.
How do plates move in a transform boundry?

What fault is associated with shear stress?
Strike slip faults and transform faults are associated with shear stress.
What type of plate boundary are strike-slip faults found at?
Strike-Slip faults are found at transform boundaries because strike slip faults push and pull on opposing forces HORIZONTALLY exactly like a transform boundary.
