continental v.s. continental

is when two huge masses of continetel liithospere meet head on and neither can sink because both plates are too buoyant

[|for pic.]

this is the photo of the contento driff.

continetal v.s. ocean in a contest between a dense oceanic plate and less dense, buoyant continental plates,guess which one will sink?

this is true becauas it was going under with the crust.

ocean v.s ocean in a contest between a dense oceanic plates and less dense, buoyant continental plates,you know that two dense oceanic plate will sink.
