C. Geologist

Explanation:

The word "geo" means earth and the ending "logy" suggests the study or science.

A geologist studies the solid rocks, liquid water, and gases that make up the Earth and the processes that shape it.

It is the geologist who studies the physical materials of Earth, including rocks and soil and not an arqueologist because they focus on man-made objects related to ancient cultures and people found on earth. Field work is important in geology but many disciplines incorporate lab work.
