Hillary Fowler · Answer 1

A. creep

D. slump

Freezing and thawing is rapid heating and cooling of the material due to change in weather conditions. Creep and slump are formed due to mass wasting or movement of particles down the slope. The slump is the downward movement of loose soil and rocks. The creep refers to movement of highly withered or loose material down the slope. Both slump and creep occurs due to the force of gravity. The materials in both creep and slump are displaced from their origin because of rapid heating and cooling or freezing and thawing.
