The general term for material that falls down and gathers at the foot of a steep cliff or mountain face is scree.

What Material accumulates at the bottom of a steep slope?
Rockslides, loose soil, and other debris such as vegetation and sediment are common materials that accumulate at the bottom of a steep slope due to erosion and gravity.
What Material that accumulates at the bottom of a steep slope?
The general term for material that falls down and gathers at the foot of a steep cliff or mountain face is scree.
Does material travel faster when the river is flowing down a steep slope or across flat land?
it flows faster on a steep slope
Material that collects at the foot of a steep slope or cliff is called?
Talus
What is the steep slope of the dune?
The steep slope of a dune is typically around 30-34 degrees, which allows the sand to accumulate in a stable formation without collapsing. Steeper slopes can occur in dunes formed by different processes or in specific environments.
How does the slope of an area affect its runoff?
It really depends on the slope. If it is a steep slope, the runoff will flow downhill faster and collect more at the bottom. If it is a pretty level slope, the runoff won't collect at the bottom of it. The water will just flood the top of the slope.
What material making up a scree slope is called?
The material making up a scree slope is called "scree" or "talus." It consists of loose rock fragments that have fallen from a cliff or steep slope, typically due to weathering and erosion processes. These angular pieces of rock accumulate at the base of the slope, forming a steeply angled deposit. Scree slopes are often unstable and can shift or move due to gravity and other environmental factors.
What kind of good has a steep slope?

What is the difference between a concave slope and convex slope?
Standing on the top of a concave slope means you can not see down to the bottom due to the bulge in the middle. A concave slope starts gently and gets steeper, once over the bulge, near the bottom. Standing on a concave slope means that you can see the bottom of the slope. A concave slope starts off steeply and becomes less steep near the bottom.
What type of slope will erode quicker a gentle slope or a steep slope?
A steep slope, due to the velocity of the water/runoff.
Is the fan-shaped pile of broken rock fragments at the base of a steep bedrock slope or cliff?
The fan-shaped pile of broken rock fragments at the base of a steep bedrock slope or cliff is known as a talus slope or talus cone. This debris results from the weathering and erosion of the bedrock above, where gravity causes the rock fragments to accumulate at the base of the slope.
A steep slope with flat plateau?
steep slope with a flat plateau on top
