Question

in which of these geological settings are normal faults commonly found?
a transform plate boundaries
b subduction zones
c convergent plate boundaries
d divergent plate boundaries

Explanation:

Normal faults occur where the crust is being extended. Divergent plate boundaries are regions where tectonic plates move apart, causing the crust to stretch and form normal faults. Transform plate boundaries have strike - slip motion, subduction zones and convergent plate boundaries involve compression, not extension.

Answer:

D. divergent plate boundaries
