No. Intrusive igneous rocks are formed beneath the earth's surface when magma cools and extrusive igneous rocks form when lava extrudes from a volcano and cools.

Is it true that igneous rocks form only beneath earths surface?

No, igneous rocks can form both beneath and above the Earth's surface. Intrusive igneous rocks form beneath the surface as magma cools and solidifies underground. Extrusive igneous rocks, on the other hand, form on the Earth's surface when lava cools and solidifies quickly.


Igneous rocks are formed when magma does what?

The Igneous rock formed when magma cools are; 1. Extrusive (Volcanic) Igneous Rock; which are igneous rocks formed when magma cools outside the earths crust. The texture of of extrusive igneous rock is fine grained. 2. Intrusive (Plutonic) Igneous Rock; these are igneous rocks formed by gradual cooling of magma within the earths crust. The texture is coarse grained.

How and where are igneous rocks formed?

Igneous rocks are formed when molten magma cools and solidifies either beneath the Earth's surface (intrusive) or on the surface (extrusive). Intrusive igneous rocks are formed from magma that cools slowly underground, while extrusive igneous rocks are formed from lava that cools quickly on the surface.


What is the difference between exrusive an intrsive igneous rock?

Extrusive igneous rocks are formed from lava that cools quickly on the Earth's surface, resulting in fine-grained textures. Intrusive igneous rocks are formed from magma that cools slowly beneath the Earth's surface, resulting in coarse-grained textures.
