Dikes and sills are relatively thin. They both have magma to squeeze or force itself across layers of rock.
Dikes and sills are intrusions.

Magma rises from the earth to form dikes and sills
Igneous rock makes dikes and sills. Basalt or Diabese Dikes are actually usually composed of dolerite.
they are both in volcanoes
Volcanic necks Dikes Sills
Sills and dikes are both intrusive igneous rock formations that form when magma solidifies underground. The main difference between them lies in their orientation: sills are horizontal intrusions that form between rock layers, while dikes are vertical intrusions that cut across existing rock layers. An example of a sill is the Palisades Sill located in New Jersey, USA, and an example of a dike is the Giant's Causeway in Northern Ireland.
In dikes and sills.
Volcanic necks Dikes Sills
Volcanic necks are solidified magma that fills the vent of an extinct volcano. Dikes are vertical or near-vertical rock formations that form when magma is injected into fractures and solidifies underground. Sills are horizontal rock formations created when magma is injected between layers of existing rock.
Dikes, sills, and volcano necks are intrusive igneous features formed from magma that solidified beneath the Earth's surface. Dikes are vertical or near-vertical intrusions, sills are horizontal intrusions, and volcano necks are vertical conduits that fed ancient volcanoes. Batholiths are large, deep-seated intrusive bodies that often form the cores of mountain ranges. They are generally larger in size and represent a more massive intrusion compared to dikes, sills, and volcano necks.
Yes they are. Dikes are tabular discordant bodies that are produced when magma is injected into fractures and Sills are tabular plutons formed when magma is injected along sedimentary bedding surfaces.
