Not the Civil War -- World War Two. Although more American died in the Civil War, more Americans were killed in WW2. It's a pedantic technicality perhaps, but the Civil War was America's deadliest war, World War II its bloodiest.
The San Andreas Fault is the transform boundary between the North American Plate and the Pacific Plate. During the 1906 San Francisco earthquake the northern section of the San Andreas Fault slipped northward along the fault from San Juan Bautista to Cape Mendocino, a total of 296 miles (477km).
Divergent Margins. boundaries where plates are moving toward each other, and. sometimes one plate sinks (is subducted) beneath another. The. location where the sinking of a plate occurs is called a subduction. zone. A transform boundary is where plates slide past each other. with no creation or destruction of lithosphere. Plate Margin Examples. There are three general types of plate boundaries: divergent, convergent, and transform. Each general type has multiple. âspeciesâ: divergent boundaries can be spreading ocean ridges or. continental rift zones; convergent boundaries can occur between. two continental plates.
