Question

where does shearing often occur?
along a normal fault
along a reverse fault
at a transform boundary
at a divergent boundary

Explanation:

Shearing forces act parallel to a surface. At a transform boundary, tectonic plates slide past one another horizontally, which is a setting where shearing is common. Normal and reverse faults are related to tensional and compressional forces respectively, and divergent boundaries are associated with plates moving apart.

Answer:

C. at a transform boundary
