Answer:

Plate tectonics

Step-by-step explanation:

Well Deposition is the transportation of sediments involving wind, water, ice, snow, etc. that's not subsurface.

Erosion and weathering happens when rock is exposed to the elements such as wind ,water, rain, sleet, hail, etc.

Plate tectonics is the only one that involves shifting under the surface of the earth.
