Explanation:

Neptunists: They believed that the rocks on the Earth were formed by crystallization of various minerals found in the early Earth's oceans. The theory of Neptunism was proposed by Abraham Werner in later part of 18th century.

In contrast to Neptunists, Plutonists (also known as Volacanists) believed that the rocks on the Earth were formed through magmatic or volcanic activity. These rocks then passed through a repeated cycling of deposition, weathering away, getting deposited at the sea bed and rising again. The theory of Putonism was proposed by Anton Moro in 1750.
