Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Earthquakes can occur along any type of plate boundary - convergent, divergent, or transform. Convergent boundaries can produce earthquakes due to subduction or collision of tectonic plates, divergent boundaries can cause earthquakes due to the separation of plates, and transform boundaries can cause earthquakes due to the sliding of plates past each other. Therefore, all of the above options are correct.
