    Crust is neither destroyed nor formed along which boundary?
    Crust is neither destroyed nor formed along a transform boundary .

    Aqui está o porquê:

    * Transform boundaries are where two tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally. This motion causes earthquakes but doesn't create or destroy crust.
    * Convergent boundaries are where two plates collide. This can lead to the destruction of crust as one plate subducts (slides) beneath the other, melting and being recycled back into the mantle.
    * Divergent boundaries are where two plates move apart. This allows magma to rise from the mantle, creating new crust.

    Let me know if you have any other questions about plate tectonics!
