Which area would be more likely to lose its topsoil a gently sloping area or a steep hill?

I asked the same question! The steeper one will of course loose it's topsoil. Because the soil at the top of the hill can't stay up at steep hill, eventually gravity will pull it down to a reasonably flat ground. A sloping area topsoil will not fall because it can easily grip on the ground without gravity pulling at it that much. I hopes this helps you!
