What's the difference between feed and scratch

OK, I understand what is scratch and its use. How about grit and oyster shells?
Also is it true you can feed your laying hens egg shells?

Chickens that are on anything other than a mash, crumble or pellet feed needs to be on a grit.
Oyster shells should be available to all hens that are laying, egg shells can be supplemented along with the oyster shells but should not be considered a sole calcium source.
