Answer: D. Surface runoff

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface runoff is caused by a free flowing water coming from sources like river stream, oceanic water, rainwater. Such water is not absorbed by the soil. It erodes the soil.

On the basis of the above information , surface runoff is the correct option.
