When an ocean crust collides with a continental crust

the ocean crust dives under the continental crust.

Continental vs Ocean Convergence or Subduction Zone

Continental Divergence forms

a rift valley or even a small sea

An example of Continental Divergence is

Mt. Kilimanjaro, Red Sea, and Oldoinyo lengai

Ocean vs Continental Convergence forms

a trench, volcanic mountains, or mountains

Ocean Convergence forms

a trench and a volcanic island chain (archipelago)
