What type of plate boundary does pacific and N American plate form?
The Pacific Plate and the North American Plate form a transform plate boundary where they slide past each other horizontally. This boundary is known as the San Andreas Fault system in California.
In what way is the plate boundary along the coast of California different from the plate boundary along the west coast of South America?
The plate boundary along the coast of California is a transform boundary where the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate slide past each other horizontally, causing earthquakes. In contrast, the plate boundary along the west coast of South America is a convergent boundary where the Nazca Plate subducts beneath the South American Plate, leading to volcanic activity and mountain building.

An example of a divergent plate boundary is the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, where the Eurasian Plate and North American Plate are moving apart. An example of a transform plate boundary is the San Andreas Fault in California, where the Pacific Plate and North American Plate are sliding past each other horizontally.
