Question

which process is responsible for the recycling of earths crust? seafloor spreading transform faulting subduction mountain building

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Subduction is the process where one tectonic plate moves under another and descends into the mantle. This recycles the Earth's crust as the sub - ducting plate is melted and incorporated back into the mantle. Seafloor spreading creates new crust, transform faulting is related to lateral movement of plates, and mountain building is more about uplift rather than crust recycling.

Answer:

C. Subduction
