Pacific–Nazca plate boundary

Target entity: Pacific–Nazca plate boundary
Context triple: [Pacific Plate fracture zone system, relatedTo, Pacific–Nazca plate boundary]

• A. Nazca–South America plate boundary
  The Nazca–South America plate boundary is a major convergent margin along the western edge of South America where the oceanic Nazca Plate subducts beneath the continental South American Plate, driving intense Andean volcanism, seismicity, and mountain building.
• B. Cocos–North America plate boundary
  The Cocos–North America plate boundary is a convergent tectonic margin where the oceanic Cocos Plate subducts beneath the continental North American Plate, generating significant seismic and volcanic activity along Mexico’s Pacific coast.
• C. Pacific Plate boundary system
  The Pacific Plate boundary system is the extensive network of tectonic plate margins encircling the Pacific Ocean, characterized by subduction zones, transform faults, and spreading centers that generate intense seismic and volcanic activity.
• D. Farallon–North American plate boundary
  The Farallon–North American plate boundary was an ancient convergent margin along western North America where the Farallon Plate subducted beneath the continent, setting the stage for the modern Pacific–North American plate boundary system.
• E. Cocos–Nazca spreading center
  The Cocos–Nazca spreading center is a mid-ocean ridge in the eastern Pacific where tectonic divergence forms and separates the Cocos and Nazca plates.
• F. None of above. chosen
• G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.

Target entity: Pacific–Nazca plate boundary
Target entity description: The Pacific–Nazca plate boundary is a major tectonic boundary in the eastern Pacific Ocean where the Pacific Plate and the Nazca Plate interact, driving significant seafloor spreading, subduction, and associated seismic and volcanic activity.
