When there is a collision between a continental and oceanic plate, the oceanic plate plunges downwards into the asthenosphere while the continental plates rises upwards/thrusted above, this is due to the fact that the oceanic crust is denser so it sinks, while the lighter and more bouyant continental crust is displaced upwards. This process is referred to as "Subduction". The area where it takes place is called the "Subduction Zone". This phenomenon results into Geological Activities, Processes, Formations and Features/Landforms such as Trenches, Volcanism (Volcanoes/Volcanic Eruption), Island Arcs, Metamorphism, and Mineralization.

What layer of crust is thin and dence?
The layer of crust that is thin and dense is the oceanic crust. It primarily consists of basaltic rocks and is generally about 5 to 10 kilometers thick. In contrast to the thicker and less dense continental crust, oceanic crust is formed at mid-ocean ridges and is continuously recycled into the mantle at subduction zones. This density contributes to the oceanic crust sitting lower on the mantle compared to the continental crust.
