Which of the following statements
is not true about California and its
nearest plate boundary?
Group of answer choices
The mountains surrounding the Los Angeles basin (ex: Santa
Monica Mountains, San Gabriel Mountains) were formed by fault
motions associated with the San Andreas fault (and are still
actively rising).
California has always been this size and has always had the same
landforms.
The western boundary of California is an active margin (i.e. the
continental margin is an active plate boundary); today it is a
transform boundary, but in the geologic past it was a convergent
boundary and subduction was occurring there.
The vast oil and natural gas reserves in the Los Angeles Basin
suggest that much of the area that makes up metropolitan Los
Angeles was once under water.
