What types of rock is produced by magma that cools deep below the earth's crust?
intrusive igneous
How does a igneous rock turn into a igneous rock?
An igneous rock is formed when magma rises through the earth's crust and cools.
How does igneous rock turns into a igneous rock?
An igneous rock is formed when magma rises through the earth's crust and cools.
What is the difference between igneous rock that cools above and igneous rock that cools below ground?
That depends on where it cools. Igneous rock forms from magma or lava (there's a difference!) cools and hardens. Extrusive igneous rock forms above the earth's crust, like when the lava from a volcanic eruption hardens. Intrusive igneous rock cools inside the earth when conditions change and the area around the magma cools allowing the magma to cool.
What rocks forms when magm cools within th earth?
If the magma cools on the surface of the crust, it is called extrusive igneous rock, such as pumice, basalt or rhyolite. If the magma cools inside the crust, it is called intrusive igneous rock, such as granite.
What because granite cools below the surface of the Earth it is?
An igneous intrusive rock
What does a fine-grained igneous rock form from?
A fine grained igneous rock forms from Lava that escapes from the earth crust to the surface and cools and solidifies rapidly.
What are igneous rocks that form on lava?
Extrusive igneous rock, like basalt and rhyolite.
What is the difference between igneous rock that is cools deep within the crust and igneous rpck that cools at the surface?
igneous rocks that cools deep inside the earth are well settled while those at surface are not as lava that spreads on surface gets solidified quickly and dont get time to settle
Is intrusive igneous rock such as granite date from when it cools deep within the Earth's crust or is the date given as when the rock is uplifted through the Earth's crust?
It is dated from the time it solidifies as rock.
What kind of rock is formed from magma that cools below the Earth's surface?
Intrusive (Plutonic) Igneous Rock.
What kind of rock forms from magma that cools below the earth's surface?
Intrusive Igneous Rock.
