3d-block elements or tranformation elements
and
4f-block elements or lanthanides and actinides
The elements that have been removed from period 7 and placed below the periodic table are called the "lanthanides" and "actinides". These elements are also known as the "rare earth elements" and they are placed separately to conserve space on the periodic table.
The periodic table is a set of elements organized by their atomic number, electron configurations, and recurring chemical properties. It consists of rows, known as periods, and columns, known as groups. Elements in the same group share similar chemical behaviors.
The periodic table is divided into blocks based on the electron configurations of the elements. The main blocks are s, p, d, and f. Similarities: Elements within the same block have similar chemical properties. Elements in the same block have the same number of valence electrons. Differences: The s-block elements are in groups 1 and 2, the p-block elements are in groups 13-18, and the d-block elements are in groups 3-12. The f-block elements are the lanthanides and actinides, which are placed below the main body of the periodic table.
A group (or family) of elements is a column on the Periodic Table. All elements in a group share the same sorts of characteristics. All elements in the same group have the same amount of electrons in their outer shell. Another example of physical characteristics is in Group 1 - Alkali Metals. They are all incredibly reactive in Water.A group (or family) of elements is a column on the Periodic Table. All elements in a group share the same sorts of characteristics.

Lanthanides and Actinides are placed separately as the properties of these elements is quite different from the elements in periodic table.
Periodic table has 18 groups; see the link below.
The two periods below the periodic table are known as the lanthanides and actinides. These series consist of elements that fall within the f-block of the periodic table.

The periodic table is a set of elements organized by their atomic number, electron configurations, and recurring chemical properties. It consists of rows, known as periods, and columns, known as groups. Elements in the same group share similar chemical behaviors.
The elements that are placed outside of the periodic table are called transactinides. These elements are usually placed in a separate row below the main table and are synthetic elements that do not occur naturally on Earth.
The periodic table is divided into blocks based on the electron configurations of the elements. The main blocks are s, p, d, and f. Similarities: Elements within the same block have similar chemical properties. Elements in the same block have the same number of valence electrons. Differences: The s-block elements are in groups 1 and 2, the p-block elements are in groups 13-18, and the d-block elements are in groups 3-12. The f-block elements are the lanthanides and actinides, which are placed below the main body of the periodic table.
The periodic table contain all chemical elements. For the table see the link below.

As of January 27, 2008, there are 117 elements, and all of which can be found on the Periodic Table of Elements. See the link below for the Periodic Table of elements.
