B
A natural process that creates land
C
A natural process where areas that are normally dry is covered in water
D
This ain’t the right answer!!!
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The process of breaking down of rocks and land due to forces such as gravity, wind, water and ice.

Detailed explanation-2: -Destructive forces are defined as natural forces that break down the earth. Water, ice, wind, etc. lead to erosion and weathering of rocks and other landforms over time. Sometimes, the effects of destructive forces are noticed immediately.

Detailed explanation-3: -Destructive forces break down land. The two main forces that break down land slowly are weathering and erosion. Weathering is the breaking down of rocks due to forces such as wind and water. The pieces of rock are then moved elsewhere through the process of erosion.

Detailed explanation-4: -Erosion is the geological process in which earthen materials are worn away and transported by natural forces such as wind or water.

Detailed explanation-5: -Examples of destructive forces are weathering and erosion. These forces tend to break down the features of the Earth’s surface. Destructive forces often result in the loss of existing types of land.

Detailed explanation-6: -Landforms are a result of a combination of constructive and destructive forces. Collection and analysis of data indicates that constructive forces include crustal deformation, faulting, volcanic eruption and deposition of sediment, while destructive forces include weathering and erosion.
