The answer is b. destroyed.

At a convergent boundary,also known as destructive boundary, when the oceanic plate and continential plate meet, the denser oceanic plate will subducts under the less dense continential plate to become molten rock, turning into magma, thus the material is destroyed under the high temperature of magma.

Hope it helps!
