You mean what IS a geometric sequence?
It's when the ratio of the terms is constant, meaning:
1, 2, 4, 8, 16...
The ratio of one term to the term directly following it is always 1:2, or .5.
So like, instead of an arithmetic sequence, where you're adding a specific amount each time, in a geometric sequence, you're multiplying by that term.

Is geometric sequence a sequence in which each successive terms of the sequence are in equal ratio?
Yes, that's what a geometric sequence is about.
Is a geometric progression a quadratic sequence?
A geometric sequence is : a•r^n while a quadratic sequence is a• n^2 + b•n + c So the answer is no, unless we are talking about an infinite sequence of zeros which strictly speaking is both a geometric and a quadratic sequence.
What is the difference between a geometric sequence and a recursive formula?
what is the recursive formula for this geometric sequence?
What is the sequence of numbers that are both geometric and arithmetic?
It is called arithmetico-geometric sequence. I have added a link with some nice information about them.
What is the common ratio in this geometric sequence?
A single number does not constitute a sequence.
