Erosion is the action of surface processes that removes soil, rock, or dissolved material from one location on the Earth's crust, and then transports it to another location while Mass wasting is the slope movement or mass movement, is the geomorphic process by which soil, sand, regolith, and rock move downslope typically as a solid, continuous or discontinuous mass, largely under the force of gravity, but frequently with characteristics of a flow as in debris flows and mudflows.

→Erosion is the moving away of topsoil by forces of nature like running water , moving wind.
→Mass wasting is when large amounts of rock, soil or other materials move down a slope.
Erosion – removes weathered rock on a grain to grain basis. Mass Wasting - transports large amounts of soil and rock in a single event
