Transform boundary

The video explains how tectonic plates slide against each other without creating or destroying new rock. As these plates move, they build up strain, which can be released suddenly, resulting in an earthquake.

What happens when two tectonic plates slide against each other?

• They move alongside each other.

• They destroy existing rock.

• They create new rock.

• They stop moving completely.

During the movement of tectonic plates, what happens to the rock?

• Rock remains unchanged.

• Rock turns into magma.

• Existing rock is destroyed.

• New rock is formed.

What builds up as tectonic plates move alongside each other?

• Magnetic fields

• Strains

• Heat

• Water

What can the sudden release of built-up strains between tectonic plates cause?

• A tsunami

• A volcanic eruption

• A landslide

• An earthquake

Which of the following is not a result of tectonic plate movement?

• Plate sliding

• New rock formation

• Earthquake

• Strain build-up
