Which of the following events would most likely produce an earthquake? a. during flooding, water exerts pressure on the land, causing wide cracks in the ground. b. at transform plate boundaries, tectonic plates rub against each other with great force. c. along mountain slopes, heavy rocks fall, creating shocks that travel through the land. d. during thunderstorms, lightning generates shocks that pass through the earth’s crust.

B. At transform plate boundaries, tectonic plates rub against each other with great force.

Explanation:

At transform plate margins where tectonic plates slide against each other, earthquake can result.

Earthquake is produces a disturbance that travels throughout the earth when rocks moves elastically. In a transform margins, as one plate slides past another, disturbances here generates movement in other areas away from the margin. This can lead to movement along a fault surface and hence an earthquake will result.
