Solution

The correct option is C Plate tectonics.
The theory of plate tectonics states that the Earth's solid outer crust, the lithosphere, is separated into plates that move over the asthenosphere, the molten upper portion of the mantle. Each type of plate boundary generates distinct geologic processes and landforms.
