      A. Convergent, divergent, and transform

      The Pacific Plate is surrounded by various types of tectonic boundaries that can cause earthquakes. Convergent boundaries occur where plates push against each other, leading to subduction zones. Divergent boundaries form where plates pull apart, creating new crust. Transform boundaries happen where plates slide past one another. All three types of boundaries are present around the Pacific Plate, contributing to its seismic activity. Keep up the good work!
