How is igneous rock form?

When magma, which is molten rock, cools, igneous rock forms. This can happen as a subsurface event, or it can occur as exposed magma solidfies at the surface after it emerges. The number of different "types" of rock that are formed are as varied as the material from which it forms, and are also affected by the way the rock cools.

How does igneous rock sedimentary rock and metamorphic rock different?

Igneous rock is formed by magma cooling and becoming solid. Metamorphic rock is the end result of a process called metamorphism (which means "change in form"). Sedimentary rock is formed by sedimentation of material at the Earth's surface and within bodies of water.
