    Geology is the study of the Earth, including its layers, rocks and how they are formed, fossils, volcanoes, and the processes that shape the Earth over time. Geologists study the origin, history, and structure of the Earth. Rocks are solid mineral materials that make up part of the Earth's surface and are created through weathering and the breaking down of earth materials by wind, water, and other forces. There are three main types of rocks: sedimentary rocks formed from mineral precipitation, igneous rocks known as fire rocks, and metamorphic rocks formed by recrystallization of minerals under high heat and pressure. Volcanoes can be active, dormant, or extinct, and fossils are
