Metamorphic rocks form when rocks change after undergoing extreme pressure or temperature increase. These temperature changes must be hot enough to reorganize matter within the rock but not hot enough to melt it.
The most common feature found at a transform boundary is a fault. An example of this is the San Andreas Fault Line.
Earthquakes during a strike slip or any other type of transform boundary
San Andreas Fault
A plate is not classified as convergent, divergent, or transform, a plate boundary i.e. a boundary between plates is. All three types of plate boundary can be found along the edges of the North American plate.
The processes found at convergent boundary that help in the formation of rocks are subduction zones. Igneous rocks form around convergent boundaries.
The most common feature found at a transform boundary is a fault. An example of this is the San Andreas Fault Line.
Transform boundaries occur where tectonic plates slide by each other. A famous transform boundary is located in California at the San Andreas Fault.

The transform boundary is also known as the transform fault. This type of boundary is commonly found in deep ocean floors and are typically involved in movement which aids in relieving tension in the layers of the earth.

A certain type of strike-slip fault is found at a transform plate boundary.
Strike-Slip faults are found at transform boundaries because strike slip faults push and pull on opposing forces HORIZONTALLY exactly like a transform boundary.

A transform boundary forms where plates slide past each other horizontally. Most transform boundaries are found near Mid-ocean ridges.
