Do rocks differ in color shape size hardness and texture?
Yes
How do geologists determine a rock's texture?
By looking at the size, shape, and pattern of the rock's grains or crystals.
What texture is igneous?
igneous is the texture of igneous rocks. The texture of igneous rocks is defined by 3 ways: a) Crystallinity- it expresses the degree of formation of crystals in an igneous rock. the texture of an igneous rock may be Holocyrstalline (Completely characterised by crystals, Hemicrystalline (partially having crystals) and holocrystalline (no crystals). b) Granularity- it is the size of the grains. it may be equigranular (when mineral grains are equal in size) or inequigranular (when mineral grains are not equal in size). c) shape of crystals- The shape of crystals may be Euhedral (When all crystals are of same shape), Subhedral (when they are partially similar in shape), Anhedral (when they are completely different in shape).
Why do rocks differ in color and texture?
Rocks can be made of assemblages of different minerals whose crystals may be of varying size. This variation in composition and grain size results in a plethora of rock types of different density, color, texture and fabric.
What are the physical properties a geologist uses to help identify rocks and minerals?
Scientists use color, shape, size, smell, texture to identify a rock or mineral. The most important way is to see what are the elements and where it came from. Sometimes they even use taste

What are objects recognize by?
Shape, size, color, and texture, but not necessarily in that order...
Hardness texture and color are examples of?
Color, texture, and hardness are examples of physical properties. Shape and size are two more examples.
