D. This is a divergent plate boundary where ocean ridges move away from each other.

transform

Explanation:

based on what I've seen from my past geography classes they're sliding past each other, usually depicted by being uneven in the picture. you can also  confirm this by seeing the scraping  being done to the terrain where the other plate supposedly was.

the first phase of the government’s plan for settlement was building the transcontinental railroad. the railroad provided a way to bring settlers and manufactured goods west and ship their agricultural and mining produce east. the transcontinental railroad was an essential artery for rapid development of the frontier.

the second phase of the government’s plan was a liberal land distribution policy that made it possible for many people to homestead. with these two key elements—transportation and cheap land—the government rapidly achieved its goal of persuading people to move west, settle on farms, and push back the frontier.
