Layer masks allow you to hide or use as much of any one layer as you like.
Adjustment Layers are a group of a super useful, non-destructive image editing tools that add color and tonal adjustments to your image without permanently changing its pixels. A clipping mask uses the content of one layer to control another. A layer style is simply one or more layer effects and blending options applied to a layer. Layer effects are things like drop shadows, stroke, and color overlays.
