Solution

The two important aspects of the evolution of landforms are:

  1. Erosion: The wearing away and removal of earth materials by geomorphic agents (such as running water, groundwater, glaciers, wind, and waves).
  2. Deposition: The dropping or accumulation of eroded materials in lower areas to build new land features.

Together, these two processes drive the continuous transformation of one landform into another over time.
