HEYA..!!!

Convergent boundary
1.When two plates move towards each other they are called converging.
2.Convergence of two plate boundaries leads to the folding of land and formation of mountains.
3.When they converge, subduction takes place and lithosphere is being consumed.Hence it is also called as destructive plate boundary.
 
Divergent boundary
1.When two plates move away from each other they are called diverging.
2.Divergence of two plate boundaries causes the fracture in landforms.
3.When they diverge, new lithosphere is being formed by accretion.Hence it is also called as constructive plate boundary.
 
Transform boundary
1.When two plates move horizontally past each other.They form transform boundary.
2.They are common on the sea floor, where they form oceanic fracture and when they occur on the land, they form faults.
3.When they occur, crust is neither created nor destroyed along it.Hence they are also called conservative plate boundaries.
 

hope it helps :)

Explanation: Divergent boundaries -- where new crust is generated as the plates pull away from each other. Convergent boundaries -- where crust is destroyed as one plate dives under another. Transform boundaries -- where crust is neither produced nor destroyed as the plates slide horizontally past each other.
