Plate Boundary-Transform Boundary
Plates-Continental and Continental
How it forms-Two plates slide past each other, and catch on to each other. They create long stretches of rugged terrain, and those together are known as a fault zone.
Where is it?-There are fault zones in Alaska, New Zealand, Japan, Africa, and California just to name a few.

Transform Faults
Plate Boundary-Transform Boundary
Plates-Continental and Continental
How it forms-When tectonic plates move past each other they create transform faults by catching onto one another and causing the rock there to move.
Where is it?-They are found all along the plate boundaries
