Which outcome results when oblique stress occurs along transform boundaries?

💡 Explanation

Transpression and shortening dominate because oblique stress along transform faults generates restraining bends; therefore thrust faults increase, rather than strike-slip only, because compressional forces become amplified in irregular zones.
