No. A glaciers is a slowly flowing mass of ice. A slump is a form of mass wasting in which a mass of rock or sediment breaks loose from a slope and moves relatively slowly downhill as a coherent mass.
It's moleules absorb heat energy and move farther apart.
Fast-moving water, such as in rivers and streams, can move sediment quickly due to the force of the flowing water. Wind can also move sediment quickly, particularly in arid environments where there is limited vegetation to anchor the soil in place.
Sediment and rock move to lower elevations primarily due to the force of gravity acting on them. This process, known as erosion, is facilitated by various agents such as water, wind, ice, and gravity itself. Over time, the movement of sediment and rock contributes to the formation of landforms and reshapes the Earth's surface.
These are glaciers.
gravity causing by rock or sediment to move downhill
gravity causing by rock or sediment to move downhill
it's called a slump.
I think is a slump.

How do sediment move
A shear breaks off or crumbles. A slump stays together however it will slump down.
beucause it has a strong for to push and pull the sediment! :D

Don't slump, you'll injure your spine.There was a big slump in sales.
No, a mass movement occurs due to the force of gravity acting on sediment or rock material, causing it to move downhill. This movement can happen slowly over time or more rapidly as in landslides or rockslides. The mass movement is a result of the force of gravity on the material rather than being called a gravity.
