What happens when magma reaches the surface and cools?
it forms igneous rocks
Magma cools and solidifies to form what rocks?
igneous rocks
What does magma have to do with igneous rocks?
Magma is molten rock beneath the Earth's surface. When magma cools and solidifies, it forms igneous rocks. The cooling process can occur either slowly beneath the surface (intrusive igneous rocks) or rapidly on the surface (extrusive igneous rocks).
How is magma and igneous rocks related?
Magma is molten rock, and igneous rock is cooled magma.
Where would igneous rocks be at?
Igneous Rocks - Rocks formed by crystallization from a melt (magma)
Which rock type forms from the solidification of magma?
Igneous rocks form from the solidification of magma. This process can occur either underground (intrusive igneous rocks) or at the surface (extrusive igneous rocks), depending on the cooling rate of the magma. Examples of igneous rocks include granite, basalt, and obsidian.
How do igneous rocks form?
Igneous rock forms from the cooling of molten material called magma or lava.
What class or rocks are made from lava or magma?
Rocks made from lava or magma are classified as igneous rocks. Igneous rocks form when molten rock cools and solidifies, either on the Earth's surface (extrusive) as lava or below the surface (intrusive) as magma. Examples of igneous rocks include basalt, granite, and obsidian.
What igneous rocks come from?
Magma
What is formed from magma?
igneous rocks
What happens to the energy inside the rock as metamorphic rock becomes igneous rock?
Metamorphic rocks gain enegry as they are melted by magma and then lose energy as they cool into igneous rocks.
How igneous rocks formed underground?
Igneous rocks are formed underground from a very hot substance called magma. As magma cools and hardens under extreme pressure, it forms igneous rocks.
