∙ 12y agoa mudflow is mud and a landslide is land and a landslide moves rapidly while a mudflow moves slower. Also the real answer is WATER! Water is the difference. That is because landslides is a total science word. The definition of landslides is when land slides. Also, mudslides are also a total science word. It is when mud slides.
