What process is required for minerals to crystallize to magma?
Magma rises when it is being pushed or heated from below.
What are four processes that result in the formation of minerals?
The four processes that result in the formation of minerals are: 1. Crystallization from Magma 2. Precipitation 3. Pressure and Temperature 4. Hydrothermal Solutions
What is the relationship between magma and minerals?
No, magma is molten rock, and it is a semi liquid that exists below the surface (when it's above the surface, it's called lava). When magma cools underground it becomes an intrusive igneous rock which is composed of combinations of various minerals.
What are irregularly shaped underground magma formation that have hardened called?
batholiths
Does magma contain minerals?
Of coarse, magma is a melted mixture of rocks.
Contrast the formation of minerals from magma and their formations from solution?
The formation of minerals from magma depends on how quickly the magma cools- if it cools slowly the crystals are bigger, slower= smaller crystals. The formation of minerals from solution depends on wether the solution becomes overfilled with a dissolved substance and gets supersaturated, then the individual atoms bond together and mineral crystal is formed from the solution.

What process is required for minerals to crystallize from magma?
The process is cooling. When magma cools slowly, large well-define crystals form.

How is the process of glass formation similar to the formation of igneous rock?

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.
How are minerals formed in igneous and metamorphic rocks?
Minerals form in igneous rock as magma or lava cools. The minerals will form from the available chemicals in the magma as their crystallization temperature is reached. The sequence of mineral crystal formation from magma is described in the Bowen's Reaction Series. Metamorphic rock minerals are aligned, altered, or recrystallized from existing rock minerals due to the effects of heat and/or pressure.

Star Wars Movies do not affect the formation of magma.
