Why can different types of igneous rock form?
Because there are different types of magma and different pathways for that magma to cool.
What is the process through which single parent magma can form rocks with different compositions?
The process through which single parent magma can form rocks with different compositions is known as fractional crystallization. It occurs as the magma cools and solidifies, with different minerals crystallizing at different temperatures. As these minerals crystallize and settle out of the magma, they can form different rock compositions depending on the minerals that have formed. This process can produce a range of rock compositions from a single parent magma.
Why do different parts of magma become solid at different times?
There are different temperatures
What causes different crystal shapes?
Crystals are made from molten magma that cools causing silicate minerals to crystallize. The different crystal shapes form differently as the magma cools at different rates.
Are molten rock and lava the same thing in different places?
Molten rock that has been erupted onto Earth's surface is known as lava. Molten rock within the Earth is known as magma.
What list places the magma What list places the magma types in order of decreasing?
basaltic,andesitic,rhyolitic
How are hot spot valcanoes different from valcanoes in other places?
the magma in the volcanoe is hotter than in other volcanoes
How did pangea break up?
it broke cause of the magma beneath earths crust or when the rocks moved around to different places
Do volcanoes erupt for the same reasons?
Yes, all volcanoes erupt because the magma underneath or in the volcano is under pressure, which forces the magma to the surface, where there is less pressure. However, volcanoes form in different places.

How are rocks that form from magma and lava different?
They are different because lava is when it hits earth's atmosphere; magma turns to lava. Magma is when its inside the volcano. They are different because of the color: darker/blacker and magma rocks are way hotter. Lava rocks are colder and fragile.
Which type of rock forms from magma?
magma is a mixture of several different types of rock.
Where is team magma in Pokemon ruby .Help please?
Team Magma appears in many places, one of which is Dewford Island... outside the Museum.

What are some properties of magma?
Magma has a lot of different properties. it also means lava. It is in the mantlle if it is called magma, lava is when it is on the earths crust.
