What type of boundary neither creates nor destroys oceanic crust?
Transform boundary.
Which feature is commonly formed at a plate boundary where oceanic crust converges with continental crust?
A deep ocean trench is commonly formed at a plate boundary where oceanic crust converges with continental crust. The oceanic crust is denser and is forced beneath the lighter continental crust, creating a deep trench.
Is the crust formed or destroyed at a sliding boundary?
At convergent boundaries are boundaries the crust is destroyed by subduction of oceanic crust underneath continental crust or other oceanic crust.
Is the crust formed or destroyed at the sliding boundary?
At convergent boundaries are boundaries the crust is destroyed by subduction of oceanic crust underneath continental crust or other oceanic crust.
How does two portions of newly formed crust move between parts of a ridge that are offset by a transform boundary?
At a transform boundary, two portions of newly formed crust move laterally past each other due to the motion of tectonic plates. As magma rises at the mid-ocean ridge, it creates new oceanic crust, which then becomes offset by the transform fault. This lateral movement allows the sections of crust on either side of the transform boundary to shift in opposite directions, maintaining the overall process of seafloor spreading while accommodating the differences in plate movement. The transform boundary effectively acts as a conduit for the movement of crustal material between the segments of the ridge.

Is the crust destroyed or formed in transform boundary?
Niether. At a transform boundary, plates slide past each other, and crust is conserved.
A fault generally occurs at a transform boundary?
A strike-slip fault generally occurs at a transform boundary

Is a new ocean crust formed at a divergent boundary?
because the molten rock cools in the water and forms a oceanic crust
What type of boundary oceanic crust?
Convergent boundary.
The margin of a continent is the boundary between continental crust and?
oceanic crust
What is continental and oceanic crust?
Continental crust is the thicker, less dense, and older type of crust found beneath continents, primarily composed of granite and sedimentary rock. Oceanic crust is the thinner, more dense, and younger type of crust located beneath oceans, primarily composed of basalt. The boundary between continental and oceanic crust is known as the continental-oceanic crust boundary.
