Answer:

Option C, Rockfall

Step-by-step explanation:

Talus is basically formed along the side of a slope at it base by the deposition of pile of rocks and sediments which have eroded from the slope and have collected at the base. In a rock fall, the rock fragments detaching from a vertical cliff slides/topple down to the base of the terrestrial structure there by forming talus.

Hence, option C is correct
