Magmatic (lava) cooling.
Volcanic activity produces extrusive igneous rock.
Igneous rock formed in the earths crust is known as intrusive rock. The magma that forms it cools slowly and therefore, creates rock with large crystals. An example of an intrusive igneous rock is granite.
igneous rocks become metamorphic rocks by great heat and pressure over time.
Metamorphic rocks are made by heat and pressure, and assuming this isn't a grown person, you SHOULD know that igneous rocks are formed by lava or magma that hardens, so it is when a metamorphic rock is melted, and then hardens. This creates igneous rock.

Sedimentary rock can be eroded into sediments, heated and compressed into metamorphic rock, or melted into magma and cooled into igneous rock.
Molten rock is formed through the melting of rocks in the Earth's mantle or crust due to high temperatures and pressure. When the molten rock cools and solidifies, it creates igneous rock, which can be further classified into types such as basalt, granite, and obsidian, depending on the cooling process and composition of the molten rock.
Magma cooling beneath the surface creates intrusive igneous rocks.
Sedimentary rock to change to Igneous rock by applying heat and pressure , which creates Metamorphic rock . Next , Metamorphic rock turns to Magma because it melts . Lastly you have to let the Magma cool and it becomes an Igneous rock . That is how Sedimentary rock changes to Igneous rock .
Igneous rock is formed when molten magma cools and solidifies within the Earth's crust. This process can happen either beneath the surface, leading to intrusive igneous rocks, or above the surface, resulting in extrusive igneous rocks like basalt.
Igneous rock is formed.
