Examples include deposition, volcanoes, faults a natural occurrence that breaks down the surrounding area. Examples include weathering, erosion, earthquakes, volcanoes, organisms the molten rock when it reaches Earth's surface a theory that explained how continents shift, or change position on Earth's surface the pieces of Earth's crust that fit together and form the top layer of the Earth the release of energy when plates shift
