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: -Solid Earth sciences encompass the study of the planet’s solid surface, including ocean basins, and its interior. Understanding the structure and the functioning of the Earth and its dynamics is the challenge of Earth scientists, who study the physical and chemical constitution of our planet.

Detailed explanation-3: -Geologists study the materials, processes, products, physical nature, and history of the Earth. Geomorphologists study Earth’s landforms and landscapes in relation to the geologic and climatic processes and human activities, which form them.

Detailed explanation-4: -Solid earth refers to “the earth beneath our feet” or terra firma, the planet’s solid surface and its interior. It contrasts with the Earth’s fluid envelopes, the atmosphere and hydrosphere (but includes the ocean basin), as well as the biosphere and interactions with the Sun. It includes the liquid core.

Detailed explanation-5: -Geology is the study of the earth (geo means earth, and ology means study of). This is a very simple definition for something so complex. Geology involves studying the materials that make up the earth, the features and structures found on Earth as well as the processes that act upon them.
