Answer: A. It enlarges continental landmasses and forms mountains along the edges of continents.

The accretion is a process in which small objects, matter or particles gets aggregated to form a large object, landmass due to the affect of gravitational force acting on these entities. Example of accretion process includes formation of galaxies, stars, planets and mountains.
