Answer:

The statement is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The downward movement of rock and boulders due to the force of gravity is known as mass movement.
  • Mass movement takes place continuously and is seen to occur in all slopes, some take place slowly and cause no damage while some are disastrous.
  • The best way to reduce the number of disasters related to mass movement is by educating the people about these and how to protect themselves, not by relocating.
