Geology is a type of earth science that can help study everything that is related to the planet. This will cover all of the liquid and solid parts of the earth. This will require a lot of extensive research since a lot of details would need to be studied. Ecology is the study of the interactions of the different living things on earth.

This will state how different living things thrive in their current environment or if there are certain living things that cannot live with each other. Geology is a type of study that has been done even by the ancient people but ecology is a more recent study. The study of ecology only started in the 19th century.

Geology and ecology are two branches of science that have many similarities, but there are many differences too. If you have ever gone outside and picked up a rock and studied it, you are doing something about geology. Both have to do with the environment and everything that is on the planet. However, geology is considered to be an earth science.

Anything that makes up the earth even if it is a liquid or solid has to do with geology. Ecology, however, has to do with how life on earth, whether it is a human, animal, or plant interacts with other organisms on the planet. This has to do with where these living things live, what they eat, how they get food and their environment.
