Tectonics refers to processes that occur within the Earth's lithosphere such as uplift and subsidence, while erosion is an external process that occurs on the surface of the Earth. Therefore, option C is correct. Option A is incorrect because internal processes can also build up the landscape (e.g. volcanic eruptions). Option B is incorrect because internal and external processes can interact with each other. Option D is incorrect because both internal and external processes can occur in all spheres of the Earth (lithosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere).
