Answer to Question 1

At a transform plate boundary two plates slide laterally past each other. A transform plate boundary is
the site of a transform fault.



Answer to Question 2

Plate tectonic theory is supported by diverse lines of evidence from many scientific disciplines, such as
geology and biology, and it explains many seemingly unrelated geological phenomena.
