Mass Movement

        Help!  

Question
Answer
what is mass movement   the movement of loose material down a slope under the influence of gravity  
🗑
what is the loose material known as   regolith  
🗑
what are the factors that influence mass movement   Slope or Gradient Vegetation Water Human Activity  
🗑
explain how the Slope or gradient influences mass movement   The steeper the gradient the faster the loose material can move down the slope, a gentler slope will have a slower movement of regolith  
🗑
explain how vegetation influences mass movement   Roots of plants and trees keep the soil together and make it more stable. this can help to prevent mass movement  
🗑
explain how water influences mass movement   Water makes the regolith heavier, causing it to move faster down the slope  
🗑
explain how human activity influences mass movement   Humans can speed up the process of mass movement by making upland areas unstable if they cut into the hillsides to build roads or if they quarry in the area  
🗑
name the four types of mass movement   Soil Creep Mudflow Landslide Bog Burst  
🗑
Tell me the speed of mass movement   Slow  
🗑
tell me the speed of Mudflows   Rapid  
🗑
tell me the speed of bogbursts   idk tbh  
🗑
Tell Me the speed of landslide   Very Rapid  
🗑
