Answer 1

Among the options provided, **A) delta formation** occurs at the slowest rate. Delta formation is a gradual process that involves the deposition of sediment over time, as rivers slow down and spread out upon reaching a body of water. In contrast, earthquakes, floods, and landslides can occur rapidly and are typically associated with much quicker processes.
