What causes intraplate volcanism?
Most of Earth's earthquakes (especially the larger ones) are concentrated along the Earth's tectonic plate boundaries, particularly the destructive ones. However some earthquakes (and even some large ones) do happen away from these areas in the centre of the tectonic plates and these are called 'intra plate' earthquakes - where 'intra' means 'interior'.
What type of rock forms at the edges of cooling magma chambers within earth?
Extrusive Igneous Its intrusive igneous A+
Type of rock formed from molten rock?
Igneous rock is formed when magma cools and becomes solid.
Are both weathering and erosion a form of tectonic forces?
No. Tectonic forces are from within the earth. Weathering and erosion come from the atmosphere.
What can change a igneous rock into a metamorphic rock?
The process that can change an igneous rock into a metamorphic rock is called metamorphism. This occurs when the igneous rock is subjected to high temperatures and pressure deep within the Earth's crust. These conditions cause the minerals in the rock to recrystallize and realign, forming a new metamorphic rock with different physical and chemical properties.
What is an example of activity space?
"the space within which daily activity occurs"

What Igneous rocks are cooled within the Earth?
Intrusive igneous rocks.
What type of igneous rock forms within Earth's surface?
Intrusive igneous rocks form within the Earth
What part of the rock cycle occur deep in earths crust?
The formation of intrusive igneous and metamorphic rocks.
What is in the formation of igneous rocks but not in formation of metamorphic rocks?
igneous rocks form within earths surface
What type of rock forms at the edges of cooling magma chamber within the earth?
Extrusive Igneous Its intrusive igneous A+
What type of rock forms at the edges of cooling magma chambers within earth?
Extrusive Igneous Its intrusive igneous A+
What type of igneous rock forms beneath Earths surface?
Igneous rock that forms within the Earth is intrusive.
Type of rock formed from molten rock?
Igneous rock is formed when magma cools and becomes solid.
Are both weathering and erosion a form of tectonic forces?
No. Tectonic forces are from within the earth. Weathering and erosion come from the atmosphere.
What are igneous rocks that form on lava?
Extrusive igneous rock, like basalt and rhyolite.
