A transform boundary occurs where plates side against each other

true

false

The correct answer is - True.

The transform plate boundaries are the boundaries where the tectonic plates are not moving away, or moving towards one another, but instead they are sliding past each other.

At this type of boundaries, a fracture zone is forming, which causes the formation of a transform faults. Most of the transform faults can be found in the ocean basins and they are connecting the offsets of the mid-ocean ridges.

As the plates slide past one another, the boundary between them exist no more as their movement has set them apart from each other. The transform boundary than can continue as a new transform boundary, as a divergent plate boundary, or as subduction zone.
