No. They are usually fine grained.
No, lava rocks do not have large grains they have very small grains.
Detrital rocks are formed by pre-formed particles from the ground. ! :)
Fine grains of rocks are referred to as "clasts." The word "clast" comes from the Greek word "klastos," meaning "broken."
Difference in temperature of the varying layers of the Earth's surface where either of the rocks solidify,causes difference in size of grains of rocks.When solidified below the Earth's surface,the grains are comparatively larger crystals than extrusive igneous ones.Intrusive rocks form underneath the Earth's surface(eg.,granite). Magma cools slowly so it has time to form large crystals.Extrusive rocks are ones that form from lava (blasted out of a volcano) so they cool very quickly, not allowing large crystals to form(eg.,obsidian).
usually the youngest rocks are found on the top of the earths crust
The list of the 3 types of rocks: 1. Igneous Rocks - These rocks form from magma trapped below the earth's surface and from lava that cooled on the earth's surface. 2. Sedimentary Rocks - These rocks form from loose materials such as fragments of rocks, plant and animal remains, and mineral grains that have been moved from one place and deposited in another place usually through the action of water. 3. Metamorphic Rocks - These rocks formed from igneous, sedimentary and other metamorphic rocks as a result of heat, pressure and chemical action.

No Granites are usually intrusive rocks.

they form from both...ithink
no, there are more rocks
usually the youngest rocks are found on the top of the earths crust
Usually rhyolite or dacite.
rocks or ashes.
