Blending mode
Blending modes are what define how the pixels on one layer interact with the pixels on other layers that are underneath it, as opposed to simply covering them up. When it comes to editing photos, certain blending modes are far more helpful than others. Screen is used to lighten a picture, while Multiply is used to darken it. Overlay and Soft Light are used to improve contrast in an image.
