Got and drowned both are second form of verb either we can use "got" or "drowned" at one place.

Basically, drown is the act of getting suffocated by water. Whereas sink just means falling in the water. Here ship definitely will not get suffocated by the water. Right?
So sank is used here. Fish and ship both will sink. Not drown.
So sank is used here. Fish and ship both will sink. Not drown.

Sank into the Pacific Ocean is the correct answer because sinking relates motion so into is required.
