Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

It occurs when water dissolved with salts seeps into the cracks of a rock. When the water slowly evaporates it leaves behind crystals of salts. When the rock is heated, the salts also expand and create pressure within the cracks, widening them and causing the rock to split.
