Shear
A transform boundary occurs when two tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally. This movement causes earthquakes along the boundary due to the friction and pressure from the plates interacting.
It is called transform boundaries.An earthquake
When plates slide past each other, it is known as a transform boundary. This movement causes earthquakes along the fault line between the two plates. Friction between the plates can build up over time, eventually releasing in a sudden movement that shakes the Earth's surface.
The San Andreas Fault in California is an example of a transform boundary between the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate. It runs along the western coast of the United States and is responsible for the formation of the California Coast Ranges.
Examples of transform boundaries include the San Andreas Fault in California, the Alpine Fault in New Zealand, and the Dead Sea Transform in the Middle East. At these boundaries, tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally, creating strike-slip faults.
A continental boundary is a geographic boundary where two continental plates meet. These boundaries can be characterized by different types of interactions, such as convergent, divergent, or transform, leading to various geological activities like earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and mountain formations.

Transform boundaries cause fault lines or faults.
Earthquakes can occur at a transform boundary.
A transform fault boundary is a conservative plate boundary. This is what gets rid of lithosphere.

Mt. Fuji is located in Japan. It is near a continental convergent boundary, a continental transform boundary, and an oceanic transform boundary.
a transform boundary is when two plates scrape past each other with an effect of a earthquake
