Solution

The correct option is A Avalanches
Avalanches are large masses of snow, ice, and rocks that slide down the slopes of a mountain or hilly terrain. They have the potential to cause a lot of destruction to roads, buildings, and vehicles. They are most common during snowfall. Another common reason is when glaciers melt, break, and slide down.
