Which of the statements below does not describe erosion?
erosion can benefit the environment.
erosion can be harmful to the environment.
the process of erosion creates soil.
the process of erosion moves soil.

Erosion can benefit the environment.

Explanation:

Soil erosion can be defined as the process of displacement of the upper layer of the soil. It is the process of degradation of soil. The soil is removed from one place and deposited at another place. This process reduces the fertility of the soil due to the loss of essential minerals due to any agent like water or air.

The loss of soil can reduce the crop production potential, can damage the network of drainage and will also lower the quality of water this way it causes harm to the environment. Thus the statement "Erosion can benefit the environment". does not describe the erosion.
