Answer:

uniformitarianism

Step-by-step explanation:

Uniformitarianism, in geology, is the doctrine suggesting that Earth's geologic processes acted in the same manner and with essentially the same intensity in the past as they do in the present and that such uniformity is sufficient to account for all geologic change.
