Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The exposed crescent-shaped rupture surface at the head of a slump is called the scarp. A scarp is created when a mass of soil or rock moves downhill due to gravity, leaving behind a steep cliff-like feature. The scoop is the concave depression at the base of the scarp, the sole is the bottom of the slope, and the toe is the point where the slope meets the flat ground at the bottom. None of these terms fit the description of the exposed, crescent-shaped rupture surface at the head of a slump.
