What process created the sand dune?

Answer
A
abrasion
B
deflation
C
weathering

Deflation is the process in which wind removes loose particles from the ground and deposits them elsewhere, helping build sand dunes. Abrasion wears down rock by particles carried by wind, while weathering breaks rock apart and compaction presses sediments together. The correct choice is deflation.
