Best Answer

erosion by moving water because Moving water is a powerful force that can shape the land by eroding soil and depositing it in new locations.

Rain that falls on the land moves downhill and collects into streams and rivers. Over time, the moving water in the river erodes the soil and carries it away until it a canyon forms.
