When a plate carrying oceanic crust collides with a plate carrying continental crust, the denser oceanic plate is usually subducted beneath the continental plate due to the difference in density. This can lead to the formation of mountain ranges, deep ocean trenches, and volcanic activity at the subduction zone.

If the plates are moving at each other from directly opposite directions, the denser oceanic crust will subduct, or slide under the less dense continental crust, eventually melting back into the mantle. The hot gasses and pressure created by the melting process will seek release in the form of a volcano! :D
Trench
it subducts underneath the crustal plate
When two plates carrying continental crust collide, both plates crumple and fold due to the immense pressure. This can lead to the formation of mountain ranges and earthquakes along the convergent boundary. The collision can also result in the subduction of one continental plate beneath the other, ultimately leading to the formation of a mountain belt.

It creates a explosion similar to when Chuck Norris gets mad.
