Transform Boundary
In a transform boundary plates slide past each other. When a great amount of pressure is forced on the plate it results into an earthquake. In transform boundaries plates slide past each other in a side way motion. The boundary that the these two plates meat each other is called a transform boundary. Thee resulting energy release equals a earthquake such as in japan. The reason earthquakes are created because of the side way movement by the plates which crash into each other with a great amount of force.
