解析 C。解析:加利福尼亚的圣安德烈亚斯断层是转换型(transform)板块边界的一个例子。A选项convergent是汇聚型板块边界;B选项divergent是背离型板块边界;D选项subduction是俯冲,属于汇聚型板块边界的一种特殊情况,都不符合圣安德烈亚斯断层的板块边界类型。反馈 收藏 ...
相关知识点: 试题来源: 解析 A。解析:圣安德烈亚斯断层(The San Andreas Fault)是转换型板块边界的一个典型例子。在这个区域,太平洋板块和北美板块相互滑动。而不是板块相互分离的离散型边界,也不是板块相互挤压碰撞的汇聚型边界,所以这题选A。反馈 收藏 ...

plate boundary may be shifting eastward, away from the San Andreas to the Walker Lane.Assuming the plate boundary does not change as hypothesized, projected motion indicates that the landmass west of the San Andreas Fault, including Los Angeles, will eventually slide past San Francisco, then ...
Weak seismic vibrations--tectonic tremor--can be used to delineate some plate boundary faults. Tremor on the deep San Andreas Fault, located at the boundary between the Pacific and North American plates, is thought to be a passive indicator of slow fault slip. San Andreas Fault tremor migrate...
