A
Relief Order I
B
Relief Order II
C
Relief Order III
D
Relief Order IV
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The eroded material is carried away or transported by water, wind, etc. and eventually deposited. Landforms created because of erosion are called erosional landforms and landforms created because of deposition are called depositional landforms.

Detailed explanation-2: -Winds in hot deserts have greater speed which causes erosional and depositional activities in the desert. The landforms which are created by erosional and depositional activities of wind are called as Aeolian Landforms.

Detailed explanation-3: -Erosional landforms created by the action of sea waves at the coast: Sea caves are formed when waves hit weak areas of the rocks along the coast, developing cracks and widening them. Sea arch is formed when sea caves are eroded all the way through. Sea stack is formed when the weak sea arch collapses.

Detailed explanation-4: -Deposition develops a flood plain just as erosion makes valleys. A riverbed made of river deposits is the active flood plain and the flood plain above the bank of the river is the inactive flood plain. Natural levees are found along the banks of large rivers.
