"...on this Rock I will build My church..." (Matt.16:18 NIV).The Literal Bible states it this way: "...upon this bedrock {statement} I will build of Me the community...".The inspired word for "church" or "community" is "ekklesia."God's church is His global "community" of called-out-ones... those whom He is calling out of this world... or His "elect.""I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil." (John 17:15)
The answer depends on where on earth you were. Near the tropics you will receive much more solar radiation (light) that if you were near the poles. Even if you think of ionising radiation the answer will depend on your location. According to the local council, more than 1% of houses in Cornwall (South West England), are subject to radon-based radiation levels of at least 200 Becquerels per cubic metre. This is primarily from granite in the bedrock - underneath the houses. This level is 10 times the average for the country.
A compound word is a word that is composed of two or more separate words that are combined to make a new word. For example, combine dragon and fly to make the word dragonfly which has a completely different meaning than either of the original words. One takes a root word, like the example "fly" and adds a descriptive word such as "dragon" to get dragonfly. In a related question, "treetop" applied. A word with two parts (for example, butterfly is a compound word because is has butter and then fly) others could be: paperclip, newsstand, newspaper, eyelid, bedrock, ladybug, pigtail, pigpen, flowerpot, handbag, bedtime, handshake, ect.
Compound words are formed when two words are put together, to make one new whole word with a meaning of its own.

The term that describes the area of bedrock from which soil forms is known as the "parent material". This bedrock is broken down over time through weathering and other processes to create the soil above it.
Cracks in the moon's bedrock are called "faults" or "fractures." These features are caused by stress and movement within the lunar surface, much like on Earth.
parent rock
Regolith
glacial ice
The type of bedrock affects groundwater by determining its permeability and porosity. Highly permeable bedrock like sandstone allows water to flow more easily, while less permeable bedrock like granite restricts water movement. The presence of fractures, faults, and other geological structures in the bedrock also influences how water moves through the rock layers.
A type of opening along which weathering agents attack bedrock is a joint. Joints are fractures in the rock that provide pathways for water and other weathering agents to penetrate the bedrock, leading to physical or chemical weathering processes.
A long parallel scar gouged in the bedrock by glaciers is called a glacial groove. These grooves are formed as glaciers move over the bedrock, picking up rocks and other debris that scrape the underlying surface. Over time, the repeated movement of the glacier creates these distinctive markings.
Caverns typically form in bedrock through the process of chemical weathering, where acidic groundwater dissolves the minerals within the rock over a long period of time. As the rock erodes away, it creates larger cavities that eventually form caverns. Additionally, the presence of fractures and faults in the bedrock can also contribute to cavern formation.
Striations would most likely form on the surface of the bedrock under the glacial ice. Striations are caused by the movement of large rocks embedded in the base of a glacier scraping across the bedrock, resulting in long, parallel grooves being carved into the bedrock surface.
The physical characteristic of bedrock responsible for the oldest rock is its age. The oldest rock forms the foundation of the Earth's crust and is composed of minerals that have remained relatively unchanged for billions of years. This bedrock provides valuable information about the early history of our planet.
