What are masses of a thick pasty substance made of water and sediment that slides downhill?
Mudflows
What are masses of a thick pasty substance made of water and sediment that slide downhill?
Minerals
What are the thick parts of the earth's crust that form large land masses?
The thick parts of the Earth's crust that form large land masses are called continents. Continents are made up of a variety of rocks and have different geological features such as mountains, plains, and plateaus. There are currently seven continents on Earth.
What is marketed by its thick sediment accumulation?
Wine is marketed by its thick sediment accumulation. Sediment in wine is a natural result of aging and can indicate a wine of high quality and complexity. It is typically found in older red wines and is a sign that the wine has not been overly filtered or processed.
What is different about the sediment you find at a beach versus a tidal flat?
The beach is thick unlike the tidal flat, it's flat

Thick layers of loose sediment moving downhill along a curved surface?
it's called a slump.
Is marked by its thick sediment accumulation?
continental rise
A is marked by its thick sediment accumulation?
continental rise
Why are plains flat?
Thick layers of fine sediment collect on them
The process by which thick layers or sediment press down on the layers beneath them is called?
The process you are referring to is called compaction. Compaction occurs when the weight of overlying sediments forces out water and air, reducing the volume of the sediment and causing grains to come closer together.
The process in which thick layers of sediment press down on the layers beneath them is called?
The process you're referring to is called compaction. Compaction occurs as the weight of overlying sediment squeezes the grains of sediments together and reduces the volume of pore space between them.
