What type of plate boundary does shearing occur?
It Occurs at a transform boundary
What happens at a transform fault boundary?
Neither production nor consumption of lithosphere occurs at these boundaries.
What fault occurs at a divergent boundary?
The type of fault that generally occurs at a divergent boundary is a strike-slip fault. It is also referred to as a transform fault.
What type of boundary occurs between the max a plate and the South American plate?
Convergent on the western perimeter, divergent on the Easter perimeter.
What is the type of movement that occurs at the transform boundary?
A transform boundary scrapes against each other by going in opposite directions (like one side will be shifting upwards and the other side downwards). An example is San Andreas Fault in California.
What type of plate boundary does shearing occur?
It Occurs at a transform boundary
