Question
which type of plate boundary interaction only results in earthquakes?
collision
divergent
transform
subduction
Collision boundaries can cause mountain - building and earthquakes. Divergent boundaries can lead to seafloor spreading and volcanic activity along with earthquakes. Subduction boundaries can cause volcanic activity and earthquakes. Transform boundaries mainly result in earthquakes as two plates slide past each other horizontally without significant up - or down - movement that causes large - scale volcanic activity.
