Gravitational Erosion

Step-by-step explanation:

When chunks of stone fall from a mountainside to the ground below, it is because gravity pulled it down. When a glacier moves through a mountain range, slowly flattening or carving the earths surface in that area, it is because the pull of gravity forces the glacier downhill.

Answer:

Gravity has a strong pull and when rocks aren't in a good position/stable position they start to fall.
