Ryland Freeman · Answer 2

a long-term change due to tectonic plate movement

Explanation:

This is most definitely a long term change lest more movements among tectonic plates occur, hence eliminating the first and third options. This is surely not due to solar energy, but rather because of internal movements in the inner core and mantle, which in turn move the tectonic plates, which eliminates the last option.
