Well the oceanic plate is usually lower than the continental plate so i think the ocianic plate will smash upward. I may be wrong...
the oceanic crust slides down and burns in the mantle and forms a volcano
At plate boundaries.
convergence between a continetal plate and an oceanic plate

when oceanic crust and continental crust collide, the oceanic crust sinks down beneath the continental crust. this is called subduction.
Oceanic-continental boundaries: characterized by oceanic crust subducting beneath continental crust, creating volcanic arcs and mountain ranges. Oceanic-oceanic boundaries: involve one oceanic plate subducting under another oceanic plate, resulting in deep-sea trenches and volcanic island arcs. Continental-continental boundaries: where two continental plates collide, leading to the formation of large mountain ranges and extensive fault systems.
Oceanic-continental plate boundary: where an oceanic plate and a continental plate collide, causing the oceanic plate to subduct beneath the continental plate. Oceanic-oceanic plate boundary: occurs when two oceanic plates collide, with one plate usually subducting beneath the other. Continental-continental plate boundary: where two continental plates collide, leading to the formation of mountain ranges through intense compression and uplifting of the crust.
When oceanic and continental plates collide, the oceanic plate is usually forced under the continental plate in a process called subduction. This can result in the formation of mountain ranges on the continental plate and can lead to the creation of volcanic arcs. The collision can also cause earthquakes and tsunamis.
Oceanic plates are denser than continental plates due to their composition, so when they collide, the denser oceanic plate is forced to dive (subduct) beneath the less dense continental plate. This process occurs due to the difference in density between the two types of plates, leading to the oceanic plate sinking into the mantle.
When tectonic plates collide with oceanic plates, the denser oceanic plate is usually forced beneath the less dense continental plate in a process called subduction. This can lead to the formation of volcanic arcs and deep ocean trenches. The collision can also cause earthquakes and crustal deformation.
These are zones/areas where two lithospheric plates, involving an oceanic and a continental plate collide.
