This statement is true.

Creep is the slow, permanent movement of soil and other debris down a slope. The size of the slope does not matter as creep  is a natural process not related to a particular size of slope.

Because of it slowness, creep is difficult to be spotted. Some tale tell signs of progressing creep are: bent trees, tilted fences and cracked walls.

Creep is mostly caused by gravity and by frost heaving, other processes involved are the wedging action of root growth and the wetting and drying of soil layers. Prolonged pressure or stress put on a slope can also cause a creep.

Alja [10]

Answer:

Mary's values include devotion to loyalty, so Mary is inclined to protect her fellow officers. At the same time, Mary also believes in upholding the law. Mary's decision to report the crime had negative effects for the two officers involved, and for Mary personally. however, the rest of the community has benefited from the removal of corrupt police officers. A(n) utilitarian viewpoint would find this outcome to be ethical.

Explanation:

As we can see that Mary has taken the decision which is ethical from the utilitarian viewpoint. In utilitarian viewpoint, we decide and make decisions on the basis of the outcomes, We put efforts and decide whats going to be the likely outcome and results of our decisions. We mainly see the consequences and then proceed to make the decision. Moreover, in this viewpoint, moral values, ethics and justice is also given the main weightage. we focus not only our personal benefits but we see the benefits of large number of people. If we like something and other people do not like it then we will not make that decision. If two people in a group want to go to China for summer holidays, and five people are preferring going to London, then our decision will be going to London because in this case we can benefit more number of people. Same is the case here, Mary wants to proceed while thinking the benefits of its community.
