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.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
