Answer to Question 1

It helps catch soil washed off of bare areas, and it provides some wind protection.

Answer to Question 2

Rill erosion happens in discrete streams of water, ultimately leading to gullying. Sheet erosion
removes soil particles in thin layers more or less uniformly over a sloping surface.
