How does weathering alter the surface of land? Is it D?

A.
The landscape is changed as large rocks form deltas where an ocean meets a river.

B.
The landscape is altered by the creation of new hills or shapes such as a delta at the end of a river's course to the sea.

C.
Existing rocks are broken into smaller fragments, freeing the pieces to be moved away.

D.
The shape of a beach or a hill can be changed as smaller particles are moved away.

I don't think the shaping of the beach or hill would be considered
weathering, especially since it says "as smaller particles are moved
away".  This one is just talking about where the particles decide to
gather and make a shape.

'C' is really talking about weathering, where rocks are broken up into
stones, and the stones into smaller pieces that can be blown away
on the wind. THAT's weathering.
