You can see with the question alone that the plates involved is a oceanic and continental plate. With just that you can say that the answer is A. Another clue would be the <em>subduction</em><em />. This means that the plates converged, which makes it the type of boundary that occurred is <em>convergent. 

</em>
<em />The answer again is A. <em>

Answer:

A)continental-oceanic convergent

Explanation:

The convergent oceanic-continental boundary occurs when a collision occurs between an oceanic plate and a continental plate, as with the nazca ocean plate being subdivided below the South American continental plate. The result of this is the formation of a subduction zone, since the oceanic plate is heavier and ends up below the continental plate.

There are cadherins in each cell and they join at this point sealing the cells together, the tight junctions have the function of preventing the materials that circulate between the cells. The desmosomes provide binding sites for the cells to be attached.</span>
