Answer:

C.) Earthquake

Step-by-step explanation:

Most mountains occur due to the movement of tectonic plates. They slowly push into each other, and the earth's crust rises over time forming mountains.

Earthquakes occur due to the shift of tectonic plates. It sends seismic waves throughout the earth's crust, and causes the ground to shake temporarily.
