Convergent boundary.
Convergent boundary.
Transform boundary.
No. New oceanic crust is formed at a divergent boundary. A convergent boundary neither creates nor destroys crust.
At convergent boundaries are boundaries the crust is destroyed by subduction of oceanic crust underneath continental crust or other oceanic crust.
At convergent boundaries are boundaries the crust is destroyed by subduction of oceanic crust underneath continental crust or other oceanic crust.

The two types of Crust is the Continental Crust and the 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.
oceanic crust
New oceanic crust is created at the mid-oceanic ridges, a divergent plate boundary.
The boundary between continental crust and oceanic crust occurs at the base of the lithosphere. This boundary is known as the Mohorovičić discontinuity, or Moho. It separates the less dense continental crust from the more dense oceanic crust below.
At convergent boundaries are boundaries the crust is destroyed by subduction of oceanic crust underneath continental crust or other oceanic crust.
At convergent boundaries are boundaries the crust is destroyed by subduction of oceanic crust underneath continental crust or other oceanic crust.
The boundary between the oceanic crust and continental crust is known as the continental shelf. This is the shallowest part of the ocean that extends from the shore to the continental slope.
