Answer:

The statement that describes the concept of uniformitarianism is the one that says that a process causing changes today is the same process that caused changes in the past.

Explanation:

Uniformitarianism is the principle that applies within geology, which states that earthly history can be explained with the same geological processes that we observe in the present. This means that geological processes are uniform over time, but not always with the same power. The principle applies to both the abiotic and the biotic world.
