1. Atmosphere.
2. Biosphere.
3. Hydrosphere.
4. Geosphere.
5. Pedosphere.
Geology is the study of what? and can be broken into several sub-disciplines become familiar with at least two sub-disciplines.
Geology is the study of the Earth, the materials of which it is made, the structure of those materials, and the processes acting upon them. Some sub-disciplines of geology are mineralogy and petrology, geochemistry, geomorphology, paleontology, stratigraphy, structural geology, engineering geology, and sedimentology.
Geologists can be of great service during times of natural disasters. How were geologists used during the Hutchinson Gas explosion?

What is the difference between deductive and inductive reasoning?
Deductive reasoning is a basic form of valid reasoning. Deductive reasoning, or deduction, starts out with a general statement, or hypothesis, and examines the possibilities to reach a specific, logical conclusion.
In deductive reasoning, if something is true of a class of things in general, it is also true for all members of that class.
What is the difference between a hypothesis and theory?
A hypothesis is a proposed explanation or model of an event, phenomenon or process. There may or may not be evidence to support it, but it has not been tested or widely accepted.
A hypothesis becomes a theory when it has been tested and accepted generally, and is used as a basis for further examination of the subject of the theory. The theory is then becomes the model.
