Answer:
Landslides mudflow slump and creep are examples of mass movement of soil due to gravity.
Step-by-step explanation
- When large mass of soil or rock falls downhill with Great speed due to gravity is called Landslides.
- Mudflow is a flow of huge amount of mud from the higher elevations during severe rains that washes down the loosened soil.
- Slump and creep are slow movement of soil particles and rocks to smaller distance and result due to water and gravity respectively.
- These all can be prevented by growing plants on erosion prone areas.
- Because,plant roots can prevent these type of erosion by binding the soil.
