EVERYDAY SCIENCE

Detailed explanation-1: -Geology describes the structure of the Earth on and beneath its surface, and the processes that have shaped that structure. Geologists study the mineralogical composition of rocks in order to get insight into their history of formation.

Detailed explanation-2: -Stratigraphy is a branch of Geology and the Earth Sciences that deals with the arrangement and succession of strata, or layers, as well as the origin, composition and distribution of these geological strata. The study of archaeological and natural stratification therefore involves the assessment of TIME and SPACE.

Detailed explanation-3: -Geology : is the scientific study of the earth-the material of which it is made, the processes that act on these materials, the products formed, and the history of the planet and its life forms since origin.

Detailed explanation-4: -1.3 The study of stratified rocks is called stratigraphy. It’s the branch of geology that deals with the description, correlation, and interpretation of stratified sediments and stratified rocks on and in the Earth.

Detailed explanation-5: -stratum, plural Strata, sedimentary rock layer bounded by two stratification planes, the latter being produced by visible changes in the grain size, texture, or other diagnostic features of the rocks above and below the plane.
