Which geological feature is most directly shaped by strike-slip movement along a transform fault boundary?

💡 Explanation

When strike-slip movement occurs along a transform fault, horizontal displacement creates shear stress resulting in offset stream channels and fragmented ridges. Therefore offset geological features result, rather than volcanoes, trenches, or rifts, which are caused by subduction or diverging boundaries.
