It cannot be concluded from the information given. Whether or not a rock is near a volcano would not significantly effect freeze-thaw weathering. That is primarily controlled by climate.

Why are basalt and granite both important igneous rocks?
Because they are part of this world. They were made from lave, from a volcano. So there fore they are imporant Igneous rock. I prove this fact because they say it's important in the question you asked. An a group of scientistes have proved my theory because they have these types of rocks in their labs. You could also ask a teahcer, maybe a science teacher, a math teacher won't know.

What is the smallest active volcano in the world?
Taal VolcanoTaal Volcano is an active strato volcano on the island of Luzon in the Philippines. It is situated between the towns of Talisay and San Nicolas in Batangas. It consists of an island in Lake Taal, which is situated within a caldera formed by an earlier, very powerful eruption. It is located about 50 km (31 Miles) from the capital, Manila. It also has the distinction of being home to the "Largest island in a lake on an island in a lake on an island". This is referring to Vulcan point, an island in crater lake.The volcano has erupted violently several times, causing loss of life in the populated areas surrounding the lake, the current death toll standing at around 5,000 - 6,000. Because of its proximity to populated areas and eruptive history, the volcano has been designated a Decade Volcano worthy of close study to prevent future natural disasters. It was thought to be named as "a volcano inside a volcano" because many believed that the lake that circles the volcano was once a crater or mouth of a volcano.photo :http://www.flickr.com/photos/23707838@N03/2981194730/

No. Weathering will gradually destroy a volcano that has nor erupted for a long time.
Granite pumica and scoria are igneous rocks Why doesnt granite air have airholes like the other two?
it is because granite is formed by magma that cools under the earth unlike pumica and scoria that form while a volcano erupts.
How do weathering and abrasion link with extrusive rocks?
well it is because a volcano has magma and when the magma hardens it become funny and it laughs hahaha
How is granite from in a volcano?
Granite may form in associate with a volcano if magma high in silica, potassium, and sodium becomes trapped in the magma chamber or other structures underground and cools and hardens in place.

How does weathering effect the dotsero volcano?
help me this is an assignment please tell me the right answer.
What does granite form from?
In the volcano/magma chamber, different minerals that make up granite, (feldspar, quartz, etc.) mix to form grainy, large crystals of the different minerals. That is how granite is formed.
