What are extrusive and intrusive igneous rock?
Extrusive rocks are formed outside of earths surface. Intrusive rocks are formed inside earths surface.
The ways Which extrusive and intrusive igneous rocks are formed?
extrusive- when melted rock material coools on earths surface instursive-when the melt cools below earths surface
Is a diamond sedimentary rock?
No. By definition, sedimentary rock is formed on the earth's surface and in bodies of water. Diamonds are formed far below the earth's surface and are erupted to the surface by way of volcanic pipes.
How are rocks formed in a volcanic eruption?
They are formed when the erupted magma or lava, cool and sollidifies below or above the earths surface respectively.
What forces below earth surface shape landforms?
The tectonic plates below earths surface shape earths landforms
What igneous rocks form above the earths surface?
Extrusive because they are formed outside of the earth's core. Rocks formed below earth's surface are intrusive because they are formed inside the earth's core.
What is the Source of earths water under the surface?
To the best of my knowledge, the water under the surface was formed when the oceans were formed, or thereafter. In simple terms, cracks in the ground allows water to leak below ground into large open voids.
What is true about plutons?
they form above earths surface (THIS ANSWER IS NOT CORRECT) They Form BELOW earths surface(:
Where would you find igneous rocks with larger crystal at the surface or below the surface?
Below the earths surface.
If you found a rock with seashells in it would it be a sedimentary rock an igneous rock or a metamorphic rock?
It is definitely a sedimentary rock because you cannot find sea shells where metamorphic rocks are formed, nor can you find them in magma and lava. This is because metamorphic rocks are formed below the earths surface where the plates of the earth squash an existing rock even small to make it metamorphic, and igneous rocks are obviously formed in volcanoes where the heat and pressure would melt the fossil.
What is true about all plutons?
they form above earths surface (THIS ANSWER IS NOT CORRECT) They Form BELOW earths surface(:
