What happens when continental and oceanic lithospheres collide?
When oceanic lithosphere and continental lithosphere collide, the continental lithosphere may be obducted over the oceanic lithosphere or the oceanic lithosphere may be subducted under the continental lithosphere. The latter is thought to be more common. This subduction and obduction generally results in tectonic activity such as volcanoes and earthquakes.

Very broadly this may be referred to as bedrock. That is the upper boundary of solid rock below any superficial soil deposits. On a whole Earth scale you may be referring to the crust / lithosphere depending on if you were considering earth based on it's chemical compositional layering or it's mechanical properties, whereby the crust is the outer hard rocky layer of the earth that is composed of broadly more silica rich rocks than the underlying mantle which is composed of rocks enriched in iron and magnesium and the lithosphere is the term used to describe that portion of the Earth that behaves as an elastic brittle solid and responds to large stresses by the formation of fractures (faulting) and which combines the crust and the solid brittle portion of the upper mantle.
