Three different kinds of plate boundaries are associated with stresses that deform rock. divergent boundaries occur where plates pull apart from each other, and are associated with tensional stress. convergent boundaries occur where two plates collide into each other, and are associated with compressional stress. what type(s) of stress is associated with transform plate boundaries? recall that strike-slip faults are what enable plates to slide past each other at transform boundaries. the three diagrams below show the three types of stresses: tension, compression, and shear. determine which of these stresses would be found at transform plate boundaries, and place them in the appropriate bin
