Answer:

B wind blowing away sediment

Step-by-step explanation:

Erosion is the process whereby soil, nutrients, particles are transported away from one place to another via agents like water and wind. Generally, erosion exercises its effect on the surface of the soil.

Since erosion can occur as a result of action of water or wind on the surface of the Earth, "wind blowing away sediment" is an example of erosion among the other options listed in the question.
