why is no land created or destroyed at transform boundaries
No land is created or destroyed at transform boundaries because transform boundaries are formed by the sliding or shearing of tectonic plates alongside each other horizontally. This movement causes the plates to grind against each other, resulting in earthquakes. However, unlike at divergent boundaries where new crust is formed or at convergent boundaries where crust is destroyed or recycled, there is no significant vertical movement or collision occurring at transform boundaries.
As a result, these boundaries lack the necessary forces and mechanisms to create or destroy land. The Earth's lithosphere remains intact and continuous across the boundary, without any significant changes in surface features or landmasses. The main outcome of transform boundaries is the lateral displacement or offset of rocks and landforms, rather than the creation or destruction of new land.
