Foliation
Foliation in geology refers to repetitive layering in metamorphic rocks. Each layer can be as thin as a sheet of paper, or over a meter in thickness. The word comes from the Latin folium, meaning “leaf”, and refers to the sheet-like planar structure. It is caused by shearing forces,or differential pressure.

Antipode
In geography, the antipode of any spot on Earth is the point on Earth’s surface diametrically opposite to it. A pair of points antipodal to each other are situated such that a straight line connecting the two would pass through Earth’s center. Antipodal points are as far away from each other as possible.
