Question

At the San Andreas transform fault, Group of answer choices Lithosphere is subducted as one plate dives below another. New lithosphere is formed as two plates pull away from each other. Pressure-release melting recycles old crust. The Pacific Plate moves to the north relative to the North American Plate. All of the above.

Answer 1

Answer:

The Pacific Plate moves to the north relative to the North American Plate.

Explanation:

• San Andrea's transform fault is a transform fault. It extends roughly 1200 km through California. It forms a tectonic boundary between the Pacific and North Atlantic plate.

• The fault is divided into three segments and has a motion of right-lateral strike-slip.  The slip range of fault varies from 20 to 35 mm.
