Gas bubbles.
Igneous rocks form when lava or magma cools.But when cooling there are air bubbles that are trapped in the lava.Prime examples of this event are found in pumice and scoria
igneous rocks do absorb water because of all the pores ,cracks, and holes in them. The holes will absorb the water and the water will get trapped in the rock there for igneous rocks do absorb water.
Yes, It is rough and contains many small holes. Igneous rock is formed by cooling of magma/or lava.
Igneous rock is any rock made by the cooling of magma or lava. Igneous rocks come with or without observable crystals that are not in layers or with or without air holes or glasslike. Examples of Igneous rocks are granite, pumice, basalt and apache tears obsidian.
It is a glassy igneous rock, so there are holes in it. The holes make the rock less dense than other igneous rocks that are Not glassy.

Fast cooling lava can trap air bubbles, creating a bubbly or vesicular texture.

The holes represent the bubbles of trapped and expanding gas that was present in the solidifying lava. They were essentially frozen in place.
Because it is full of holes and air spaces. This is because it forms while bubbles of gas are trapped in quick-cooling lava.
* Vesicular rock texture is generally displayed in extrusive igneous rocks which contain many vesicles of trapped air, such as pumice or scoria. * Igneous rocks containing holes which were produced as gases escaped from the upper part of lava flow.

the lava bubbles up and some of the rock cools while there is a bubble and makes a little gap in side.
Pumice is full of holes called vesicles formed from gasses escaping the molten rock. The holes greatly reduce its density.
