Describe why earthquakes happen at transform boundaries

Shallow‐focus earthquakes occur along transform boundaries where two plates move past each other. The earthquakes originate in the transform fault, or in parallel strike‐slip faults, probably when a frictional resistance in the fault system is overcome and the plates suddenly move.

Tectonic plates along a transform boundary slide past each other in opposite directions and when the pressure build up is extremely large, an earthquake is caused. the time between earthquakes. The tectonic plates lock into place to prevent from sliding causing pressure to build up.

Earthquakes at transform faults tend to occur at shallow depths and form fairly straight linear patterns. Subduction zones are found where one plate overrides, or subducts, another, pushing it downward into the mantle where it melts.

SORRY IF THERE IS A SMALL OR BIG MISTAKE..

answer; i believe the correct answer is ; large pieces of pangaea drifted in different directions over millions of years;
