Answer to Question 1

Slopes are curved, inclined surfaces that form the boundaries of landforms. The basic components of a slope vary with conditions of rock structure and climate. They typically feature an upper waxing slope towards the top (convex surface); a free face indicating the presence of outcrop resistent rock; a debris slope, which receives rock fragments and materials from above; and a waning slope (concave surface)

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
