Source sentences:
text: The plates are bounded by three types of features: ridge axes, where new seafloor is created in mid-ocean; transform faults, where plates slide past one another; and subduction zones, where plates overlap, with one plate sliding under the other.
text: Instead, the plates slide horizontally past one another.
text: The new configuration meant the two plates slid past one another instead of crashing into each other, a boundary called a strike-slip fault.
text: In other words, the plates slide past one another.
text: These plates are rigid segments that move relative to each other at one of three boundaries types: At convergent boundaries, two plates come together; at divergent boundaries, two plates are pulled apart; and at transform boundaries, two plates slide past one another laterally.
text: The second type of plate boundary occurs where plates slide past one another along transform faults.
text: These plates (and the more numerous minor plates) move in relation to one another at one of three types of plate boundaries: convergent (two plates push against one another), divergent (two plates move away from each other), and transform (two plates slide past one another).
text: Transform Plate Boundaries are locations where two plates slide past one another.
