Reverse faults occur at convergent plate boundaries, while normal faults occur at divergent plate boundaries. Earthquakes along strike-slip faults at transform plate boundaries generally do not cause tsunami because there is little or no vertical movement.

To put it in short the divergence plate boundaries has normal faults.
