Question

connecting plate boundaries and stress
use the drop - down menus to correctly identify the type of stress associated with each type of plate boundary.
divergent plate boundary:
transform plate boundary:
convergent plate boundary:

Explanation:

At divergent plate boundaries, plates move apart and the stress is tensional as the lithosphere is being stretched. At transform plate boundaries, plates slide past each other and the stress is shear stress. At convergent plate boundaries, plates move towards each other and the stress is compressional as the plates are pushed together.

Answer:

Divergent plate boundary: Tensional stress
Transform plate boundary: Shear stress
Convergent plate boundary: Compressional stress
