When magma cools slowly what is the rock that forms?
When magma cools slowly, it forms igneous rocks such as granite or diorite, which have large mineral crystals because they had time to grow as the magma solidified.
True or false magma forms in the lithosphere?
False. It forms in the Athenosphere!!
Does sedimentary rock form from the cooling of magma?

Can landforms be made of magma?
Yes magma cools down and forms a harder rock.
What is the name of a magma cooled on the surface?
When magma cools on the surface it forms igneous rock.
How do scientists think magma forms?

What forms when rock melts?

What magma forms underwater mountains?
