Question:
When two oceanic collide, what is it that determines which plate subducts?
Answer:
A. chemical composition
When two oceanic plates collide, denser oceanic plate will subduct beneath the other. Chemical composition would greatly affect the density of a certain plate. The more its composition are compact the more it is denser.
