Perhaps :- A scree A moraine A drumlin A landslip / landslide or rockslide A lahar An a'a lava flow A conglomerate A beach A dilapidated building
Confusing right?Ok, a landslide is rapid, gravity-caused events that move soil, loose rock, and boulders. Rockfall involves ONLY loosened rock falling from steep cliffs.So a landslide have soil AND rocks. Rockfall only has rocks. :)
A landslide goes down a steep slope and mudslide goes down gentle slopes.
a mudflow is mud and a landslide is land and a landslide moves rapidly while a mudflow moves slower. Also the real answer is WATER! Water is the difference. That is because landslides is a total science word. The definition of landslides is when land slides. Also, mudslides are also a total science word. It is when mud slides. The only difference between pieces of land sliding and pieces of mud sliding is WATER! OKAY THE ANSWER IS WATER.

An avalanche can be rock, dirt, or even snow that falls down a mountain slope.Another term is landslide (landslip). A more specific term is rockslide.
landslide is a type of mass wasting

Mass movement is a fast process in the formation of landslides.Mass movement is a slow process in the formation of creep.
