solifluction
true
The force of gravity causes mass wasting to occur faster.
Mass wasting is hazardous and could kill you.
landslide is a type of mass wasting
Well, honey, erosion is like a slow dance where wind, water, or ice gradually wear down and transport soil and rock. Mass wasting, on the other hand, is like a wild party where gravity causes a sudden movement of a large mass of rock or soil downhill. So, erosion is the subtle, sophisticated one, while mass wasting is the rowdy troublemaker of the geology world.
true
A fall is a sudden movement caused primarily by gravity.
Solifluction is a type of slow mass wasting that occurs in permafrost areas when the surface material becomes saturated with water and flows downslope, often resulting in the movement of soil and sediment. It is commonly observed in arctic and alpine regions where the ground remains frozen for much of the year.
Solifluction occurs in periglacial environments, such as areas near the edges of glaciers or in cold regions with frozen ground known as permafrost. It is a type of mass wasting where saturated soil flows slowly downhill over frozen ground due to the combination of thawing and freeze-thaw cycles.

The force of gravity causes mass wasting to occur faster.
No, planning is not a wasting process. Planning involves organizing tasks and making decisions that can help achieve goals efficiently. It is a crucial step in ensuring that resources are used effectively and that objectives are met.

Weathering and mass wasting/movement.
This process is known as longshore drift.
This is broadly known as mass wasting which is a type of erosion.
An abrosia is a period of abstinence from drink, food, or the process of wasting away as the result of such abstinence.
