Hi there!

The type of boundary matches with its characteristic like this:

A CONVERGENT boundary matches with near subduction zones.

A  DIVERGENT boundary matches with tension.

A TRANSFORM  boundary matches with shearing.

Divergent boundaries are formed when plates are pulling apart; this kind of force is called tension. The opposite boundary is a convergent boundary, where two plates collide; this happens near subduction zones.

On the other hand, the force present in a transform boundary is shearing, which is when two things grind past each other.

Hope this helps!

A line imaginary that separates the two things and are generally used for the tectonic plates and the distinction of the geographical areas of the earth is called a boundary. They can be divergent, convergent or transform boundaries.

The correct matches are a. 2, b. 1 and c. 3.

What are the different geographical boundaries?

  • In Convergent boundary, the tectonic plates are thrust into one another and one plate slides underneath the other, in an area called subduction. The convergent boundary includes the continental and oceanic plates.

  • Divergent boundary occurs between tectonic plates that move away from each other and are pulled apart and resulting in tension. In Transform boundary the tectonic plates slide sideways or grind past each other and result in shearing.

Therefore, the correct matches are a. 2, b. 1 and c. 3.
