What does porphyrytic texture indicate about the story of an igneous rock?
it tells you that the igneous rock formed in two stages,stage one occurred deep into the earth were large crystals formed from and then it eruptedas a volcano in stage two were small crystals formed
Why do you preserve cells in liquid nitrogen and not in deep freeze?
A deep freeze is not cold enough to preserve cells in a form that allows them to be thawed and "revived" later. Liquid nitrogen is much colder than a deep freeze. Liquid nitrogen freezes the cells so quickly that only very tiny ice crystals form in the cells. In an ordinary deep freeze the cells produce larger ice crystals which damage the cell's structure. This is also why it's hard to freeze raw fruits and vegetables successfully at home.
Do large crystals form when magma cools quickly?
large ones
What is C is the name used to describe grains that fit together?
Crystals
Which has smaller crystals basalt or granite?
i think that basalt is the smaller crystals out of the two, as the crystals in granite are larger.
Where are the crystals in ocean king temple?
deep down where the sharks are
What type of crystals form when magma cools very slowly deep beneath the Earth's surface?
Large crystals are formed in igneous rock that forms from slow cooling magma, deep beneath the Earth's surface.
What type of rock forms deep within the earth when magma solidifies?
interlocking crystals with various colors
How do small crystals form?
Answer: Crystals usually form from molten rock as the molten rock gradually cools. If the molten rock cools very rapidly, then either small crystals form or no crystals form. An example of this is when lava is ejected from a volcano. If molten rock cools slowly, then large crystals can form. This happens usually when the molten material is very deep in the Earth. Examples of these types of crystals are diamonds, emeralds, rubies, etc.
How does crystallization form?
crystals form from molten rock as the molten rock cools. if the molten rock cools very fast then you may have small crystals growing or no crystals at all. if the molten rockk colls slowly then you then you have large crystals growing. this happens when the molten material is deep in the earth. examples of these types of crystals are Rubies, Emeralds, and Diamonds. crystals may also form when water is evaporated. salt crystals are an example as they form when salt water evaporates.
Do diamonds and crystals come from natural sources?
Diamonds come from deep within the earth, yes, a natural source.
What determines crystal size in an igneous rock?
It depends on the cooling of lava. Slow cooling forms big crystals deep under the surface while fast cooling creates small crystals on or just below the earths surface. Itstant cooling wouls have no crystals.
Where are chrystals located on earth?
Crystals are usually located deep in a cave or undergroud where oxygen is low and carbon dioxide is high
What chemicals are in a crystal?
There is no single answer for this. Many chemicals form crystals, and the chemical determines the nature of the crystal. If you know what kind of crystal, then you know its chemical nature. For example, common clear quartz crystals are made up of SiO2 or Silicon dioxide. Copper sulfate crystals have an entirely different shape and a deep blue-green color, and both are different from crystals of common table salt.

Where did an igneous rock form if the rock contains large crystals?
Usually from the slow cooling of magma with a plentiful supply of material necessary for crystal growth, and space in which to grow.
