Answer: c. Cryosphere

Explanation:

The cryosphere is the part of the earth where water exists in a solid form of ice. For example sea ice, river ice, lake ice, snow cover, ice sheets, frozen ground and ice caps. This sphere overlaps with the hydrosphere.

During a retreating glacier or conditions of glacier erosion the glacier takes away the soil and water from the surrounding region along with the glacier ice.

On the basis of the above description, cryosphere is the correct option. As the glacier being a part of the cryosphere will cause the downhill movement of the soils and water.
