Why do cliffs erode more quickly than others?

its a hard to explain but ill do what i can... so... how quickly the cliff erodes depends on 3 things the type of rock its made of, how long its fetch is and the steepness of the cliff. The type of rock has a huge impact on the speed of the cliff getting eroded because if its made of resistant rock then there are less joints therefor its strong but non-resistant rock is not able to defend itself from hydrolic action, abrosion, attrition and solution...the four types of erosion.
