What is the relationship of climate to mass movement? also, are certain climates more susceptible to mass movement? why?

Explanation:

The climate of a region can broadly determine the occurrence and likelihood of a mass wasting event . Climate is mostly based upon the precipitation and temperature conditions of the area . Mass wasting events are much more likely to occur during the spring-time when the snow melts leading to water saturation . Therefore, climatic changes greatly affects the magnitude and the frequency of most mass movements .

Yes, certain climates are more susceptible to mass wasting processes . This type of climate also helps us to determine the type of possible mass wasting that can occur at a place . Humid climates usually tends to result in slides , where the water-saturated slopes mostly fail and then fall whereas the relatively drier climates generally tend to have falls (rocks that fall), especially during the early spring . Canyons and those places which are much more prone to wildfires usually tend to have mass movements such as debris flows.

just took the test the answer is b.
