Answer:

B. Catastrophism

Step-by-step explanation:

Catastrophism is the theory that states that the Earth was mostly shaped by very sudden effects. These sudden and short-lived events would occur worldwide in scope and change the Earth rapidly. This is in contrast to uniformitarianism that states that slow incremental changes made the Earth like it is today. Changes like erosion.
