Detailed Solution

The faulting or rifting creates the valley.
It is a liner-shaped low land that was formed by the activity of a geologic rift or fault between numerous highlands or mountain ranges. Plate tectonics, which is the movement of tectonic plates as they split or move apart from one another, also creates rift valleys. When these plates divide, they move at divergent plate boundaries in opposing directions. Volcanic material has space to penetrate the Earth's surface as lava as this thinning land separates. This process eventually results in the formation of geographical features like rift valleys.
Thus, 2 is the correct answer.
