Which of the following is a subsurface event that takes place during the rock cycle? deposition erosion weathering plate tectonics

Well Deposition is the transportation of sediments involving wind,water, ice, snow, etc. that's not subsurface.
Erosion and weathering happens when rock is exposed to the elements such as wind ,water,rain, sleet,hail, etc.
Plate tectonics is the only one that involves shifting under the surface of the earth.

The answer is atmosphere. there are four spheres of the earth: 1. geosphere (from greek word 'geo' = ground), 2. hydrosphere (from greek word 'hydro' = water), 3. biosphere (from greek word 'bio' = life), and 4. atmosphere (from greek word 'atmo' = air). a magnetosphere is a region of space around astronomical objects controlled by the magnetic field of that object. through the process of elimination, since lightning is present in the air, it can be found in the atmosphere.

Is there any answer choices?
