Divergent boundaries.
At convergent boundaries are boundaries the crust is destroyed by subduction of oceanic crust underneath continental crust or other oceanic crust.

Crust is destroyed (or recycled!) at convergent plate boundaries. Usually between oceanic and continental plates where subduction of the more dense oceanic crust occurs.
The Earth's crust is destroyed when subduction occurs.
That depends! Continental-Continental convergent boundaries result in the formation of fold mountains. Crust here is neither created or destroyed. Continental-Oceanic and Oceanic-Oceanic collision bounsdaries generally lead to the formation of a subduction zone, where the denser plate (usually the older and therefore cooler oceanic plate) sinks back into the mantle and melts so is destroyed (or more accurately recycled).

Crust is destroyed at the convergent plate boundaries in Earth. In between the oceanic and continental plates, the subduction of the denser oceanic crust takes place.

At subduction zones along convergent plate boundaries.
No, new crust is not created at a convergent boundary. Instead, at convergent boundaries, two tectonic plates come together and one plate is usually forced beneath the other in a process called subduction. This process can lead to the destruction of crust rather than the creation of new crust.
Oceanic crust is destroyed at convergent plate boundaries, where two tectonic plates collide. Subduction occurs at these boundaries, where the denser oceanic crust is forced beneath the less dense continental crust into the mantle, resulting in its destruction.
Crust is destroyed at the convergent plate boundary. This is usually between the oceanic and continental plates. This is where subduction of the more dense crust occurs.

I believe it is destoryed along a convergent plate boundry where one plate slides underneath another.
At divergent plate boundaries, crust is formed through the process of seafloor spreading. At convergent plate boundaries, crust is often destroyed through subduction, where one plate is forced beneath another into the mantle. At transform plate boundaries, crust is neither created nor destroyed, as the plates slide past each other horizontally.
No, the size of the Earth is not increasing due to oceanic crust being produced. The creation of oceanic crust at mid-ocean ridges is balanced by its destruction at subduction zones, resulting in a process known as plate tectonics where the Earth's surface remains relatively constant in size.
