Illustration of a transform plate boundary on the Earth accommodating the relative motion of the plates by side-by-side (i.e., strike-slip) motion.

Divergent plate boundary

Illustration of a divergent plate boundary on the Earth accommodating the relative motion of the plates by plate formation.

Convergent plate boundary

Illustration of a convergent plate boundary on the Earth accommodating the relative motion of the plates by plate subduction and characterised by an arcuate shape.
