Id say that the best answer is Loess. I say that cause loess means a loosely compacted yellowish-gray deposit of windblown sediment of which extensive deposits occur.

Hoped this helped ;)

Answer:

Option B, Loess

Explanation:

Loess is formed by the deposition of silt/sand which is eroded, carried and deposited  by winds or in other words it can be said that Loess is formed by an Aeolian deposit. An Aeolian deposit is basically sediments formed by the wind deposited materials.  

Since Loess is formed of eroded soil (silt /sand primarily), erosion can be related to it closely.
