Answer:

The most destructive type of mass movement is a landslide, which occurs when rock and soil slide quickly down a steep slope. Some landslides may contain huge masses of rock, while others may contain only a small amount of rock and soil. A mudflow is the rapid movement of a mixture of water, rock, and soil.
