What is an intrusive igneous body?

Answer 1

Stock

Batholith

Answer 2

An intrusive igneous body is a large mass of hot liquid rock that pushes into an existing (overlying) rock formation, then cools, usually representing a harder clump of rock than the softer rocks around it. When the rock is subjected to erosion, the intrusive body can be exposed as a surface projection, similar to those formed by volcanic necks or "plugs." The term pluton is used to describe an intrusive mass. The largest groupings of plutons (hundreds of kilometers) are called batholiths, while comparatively smaller areas are called stocks. Sheet forms that may be created by plutons are dikes, sills, and laccoliths. A layered or lenticular form is called a lopolith.

Answer 3

an intrusive igneous rock body is made up of molten substance called magma. which rises to the earth surface but to fails to come out of earth surface.minerals present in magma solidifies in form of crystal.

Answer 4

Igneous intrusions are places where molten rock (magma) has forced its way into existing rock formations and subsequently set into igneous rock. Examples are dykes, sills, batholiths and plutons.

Answer 5

Intrusive Igneous Rock Bodies - The liquid phase of most materials is less dense than the solid phase. Thus, molten rock (magam) is less dense than solid rock.

Answer 6

Sills, laccoliths, dikes, and batholiths are majorintrusive igneous bodies.
