解析 Mudflows: Mudflows...involve soil and a large amount of water; The consistency of the mudflow may be similar to that of wet concrete, or it may be a soupy mixture...; When a mudflow is dense, it moves more slowly, but it can easily carry or push large boulders, trees, and even houses along with it; Mudflows containing volcanic debris are called lahars... ; Lahars occur when highly unstable layers of ash and debris become saturated with water.... Answers (E) and (F) refer to neither rockslides nor mudflows. (1.10)
