Geology <> Physical Geology

Geology is the study of the Earth or other celestial body.

Physical Geology focuses on processes -- those that operate at or near the surface and those that operate within the Earth -- and the response of Earth materials to those processes.

The Answer is No:
One is a subscience of Geology

and the other is a subscience of Biology

Physical Geology is the geology of the non living or physical planet earth (could be moon or other planet as well).


Physiology (from Greek: φυσις, physis, “nature, origin”; and λόγος, logos, "knowledge") is the study of the mechanical, physical, and biochemical functions of living organisms.

Human Physiology - Plant Physiology and animal Physiology

Answer 3

physical geology is- The scientific study of the origin, history, and structure of the earth.
The structure of a specific region of the earth's crust.
A book on geology.
The scientific study of the origin, history, and structure of the solid matter of a celestial body.

Physiology is-the branch of the biological sciences dealing with the functioning of organisms

So no they are not the same

Answer 4

Geology is a branch of Earth science - the study of how the Earth formed and changes. The "physical" part means that real objects are being studied as opposed to ideas. Physiology is a branch of biology that studies the functions of living organisms. For example, human physiology is concerned with our body systems: circulatory, nervous, digestive, etc.

Answer 5

Oddly enough, the Physiology and Geology buildings are right next door to each other at Auburn University.

Off topic, I know, but that's what popped into my head when I read the question.

Answer 6

From the Concise Oxford Dictionary- geology, definition 1: the science of the earth, including its composition, structure, and origin of its rocks. This definition can applyto any planet or celestial body. So stop being such pompous asses.

Answer 7

packinrat you sound like a mark. if you're going to correct someone you don't have to do it in such an arrogant way.

Answer 8

well i think that if something has a use like the planet, you need not study it only use it,

a planet shaped for study isnt really a planet at all
