Explanation:

Dune deflation hollows are where wind has removed sand down to a level where a layer of particles too heavy for the wind to move (an armoured surface) stabilises the sand and prevents the surface being lowered further.
A crevasse is a deep, wedge-shaped opening in a moving mass of ice called a glacier. Crevasses usually form in the top 50 meters (160 feet) of a glacier, where the ice is brittle.
a mass of rocks and sediment carried down and deposited by a glacier, typically as ridges at its edges or extremity.

D) uniformitarianism; the geologic processes that operated in the past are the same as those that operate today, and they occurred in accordance with the same laws of nature that are operating today

Explanation:

When geologists conclude that the Grand Canyon sequence of rocks was formed through hundreds of millions of years of deposition, mountain building, and erosion, they are basing this conclusion on the principle of <u>uniformitarianism </u>which states that <u>the geologic processes that operated in the past are the same as those that operate today, and they occurred in accordance with the same laws of nature that are operating today</u>.

Uniformitarianism is a theory in geology which states that the changes in the earth's crust during geological history is as a result of actions of uniform and continuous processes, that the geological processes occurring currently are same processes that have been occurring in history and every part of the world and is continuous.
