• A. (A), (B), (C), (D), (E)
• B. (C), (B), (D), (E), (A)
• C. (B), (A), (D), (C), (E)
• D. (C), (B), (A), (E), (D)

Step 1: Erosion starts with raindrop impact dislodging particles, splash (C).
Step 2: A thin uniform film then removes topsoil evenly, sheet (B).
Step 3: Flow concentrates into small channels, rill (D), which deepen into gullies (E).
