the space provided. NO ERASURES!

IDENTIFICATTION
______________1. Extremely rapid flow with massive amounts of flow material made of fragmented rock from a
large rock slide or rock fall.

______________2. Distinctively occur on very gentle slopes or almost flat terrain, when stronger upper layer of rock
or soils ( or a combination of both), moves or disintegrates above an underlying softer or weaker underlying material.

______________3. Occurs when soil or rocks abruptly detach from a steep slope or cliff, about 45-90 degrees (nearly
vertical) and usually with high elevation.

______________4. Large, extremely rapid, often open slope flows formed when an unstable slope collapses and the
resulting fragmented debris is rapidly transported away from the slope.

______________5. Is the imperceptibly slow, steady downward movement of slope- forming soil or rock, producing
permanent deformation.

______________6. The horizontal layer where the slide material is detached from the stable underlying material.

______________7. Similar to a domino falling down when it is resting on its narrow edge, or a loaf of bread that is
being sliced on its width.

______________8. The earthflow consisting of material that is wet enough to flow rapidly wherein more than half
are sand, silt and clay particles.

______________9. Refers to flow movements in bedrock that are slow, and usually occurs on slopes that are 45 to 90
degree angle consisting of stones, large rocks and boulders moving downhill.

_____________10. Is a kind of translational slide in which the moving mass consists of a single unit or a few closely-
related units that move or slide downslope as a relatively coherent mass.

A. Rock avalanche B. Creep C. Block slide D. Topple E. Mudflow

F. Debris avalanche G. Rock flow H. Lateral spread I. Fall J. Zone of weakness/ surface of rupture

II. ESSAY (USE AT THE BACK OF YOUR PAPER)

1. Is the Philippine a landslide prone area? Why or why not ?

2. Mining causes landslide, however, the Philippines is rich in mineral resources. In this context, should the country
ban mining or regulate its practice?
