Slope is a major factor in mass wasting because-
1. Mass wasting is the down-slope movement of loose mixture of soil, land and rock particles by the force of gravity.
2. In mass wasting the materials come down the slope without the aid of transporting medium like running water, ice or wind.
3. Mass wasting occurs continuously on all slopes.
4. Some act very slowly, others very suddenly, often with disastrous results.
