What is erosion ?
The process of removing soil , rock, or dissolved material from one area on the Earth's crust and **moving **it to another, where it is deposited, is known as erosion. Erosion differs from weathering , which is a static process.
Because erosion frequently **removes **nutrient-rich **topsoil **from fields, it has the potential to cause environmental problems. This may prevent plants from sprouting in degraded regions in the future.
The primary natural force responsible for erosion and deposition on Earth is **flowing water. **In a physical situation, the **energy **is **higher **the quicker the water is moving.
Hence, The appropriate response is **option B. **

Fast-moving water leads to greater erosion than slow-moving water because it has more energy, allowing it to carry larger and more sediment particles. The increased flow rate reduces friction, enabling powerful erosion. Therefore, the correct answer to the question is option B: It has more energy.
