A natural hot melt composed of a solution of rock-forming materials, steam, and super-heated gases from which igneous rock results.
Magma is molten rock, so it is a liquid. Only when it cools does it solidify, forming igneous rock.

No. Magma is liquid.
No. Magma is liquid.
Igneous rock
Cools ^ If you took this answer then is Magma relevant to Ice? Magma forms when the solid rock in the crust and upper mantle melts. ^Why not erase it then?
No. Magma is melted rock. The rock deep in the mantle is almost entirely solid.
magma can be generated from solid rock by three things:1. decress in PRESSURE2. increase in TEMPATURE3. addition of VOLATILES
magma is the semi-solid that comes out of the volcano
Igneous rock
It cools and becomes solid
Liquid
When magma solidifies, it becomes igneous rock.

After magma hits air it turns into lava
Minerals are formed from magma when the lava cools and hardens to produce a solid
Magma rises when it is being pushed or heated from below.
it's lava but in it's liquid form. A common misconception between magma and lava is lava is solid and magma is liquid hot.
The same way any solid forms from a liquid - the liquid magma cools off and becomes solid. This usually happens when the magma comes to the cooler surface of the earth as lava, but it can occur very slowly inside of the earth as the magma gradually cools.
