Match the boundary with its characteristic 1. convergent 2. divergent 3. transform a. along strike-slip faults b. along ocean ridges c. compression,

Matching the boundary with its characteristics 1. Convergent - C. Compression 2. Divergent - B. Along ocean ridges 3. Transform - A. Along strike-slip faults The compression that occur in the convergent boundary causes the reverse fault in the earth crust. So in the divergent boundary two crust plates move apart causing a normal fault along the ocean ridges. The faults in the transform boundary happens at the place where plates slide laterally.

The  answers are the following:
1. Convergent - C. Compression
2. Divergent - B. Along ocean ridges
3. Transform - A. Along strike-slip faults

These are the plate tectonic boundaries that which causes earthquakes when they move. Each tectonic boundaries result to different movement of the plates and forms new landmasses.

Which principle states: "geologic processes taking place on earth today operated similarly in the past and can be used to explain past geologic events"? a. lateral continuity
