Given the Earth's larger size and strong gravity, the Earth's surface should have more impact craters than the Moon. However, it has very few. Why is this?
A) the Moon acted like a shield, protecting the Earth from most impacts
B) the Earth's surface was almost completely molten during the Hadean Eon so no impact craters were formed
C) almost all impacts occurred in the oceans so no impact craters were formed
D) geological processes like plate tectonics, volcanism, and erosion have erased them
