Slow changes in the relief that take place over an extended period of time in three phases
FAULTS occur when the crust is rigid and fractures. Some blocks sink while others rise and form mountains
SEDIMENTATION
Movement of the eroded material.
Caused by the interaction of temperature, wind and water.
The Earth's crust is made up of plates wich float on the top of the mantle and very slowly separate, slide against each other or collide
Rifts or cracks are formed in the ocean's crust when...
When a plate on the ocean's crust collides with the edge of a continental plate it is pushed down into the Earth's interior, where high temperatures melt the crust and turn it into magma.

When two continental plates collide. They are called FOLDS
