The roots of grasses (shallow, but helps to prevent the rain washing away the soil), shrubs (deeper) and trees (deeper still and stronger). When people remove or cut down trees and other growth off a slope, wet weather is likely to saturate the soil and landslides are likely.
These are the natural anchors that tie layers of soil together on a slope.

that isn't true. the wider apart the contour lines are than the softer the slope (not steep) if they are closer together than the slope will be alot steeper.

Steep slope is indicated by topo lines close together.
a steep slope in geography is if you see one on a map then it would be lines that are close together,
How close together the brown contour lines are Yes, the closer the contours the steeper the slope. Flat land, by definition, has no contour lines.
building on a slope. A subtaining slope wall of stones held together by mud or cement.
The slope of a line and the perpendicular to that line, when multiplied together, give -1. So, if the first line has a slope of 1/21, the second has a slope of -21.
Where the slope is steep the contour lines will come close together.
