Porosity - how much open space between grains.
All rock types are important. The rock that would be most important to an individual depends on what the person needs the rock for. So, a rock that is most important to me might be the least important to you since we need them for different purposes. For instance if i need crush stones for construction then Granite would probably be the most important rock to me and on the other hand if you need Cement then Limestone would be your favorite rock type.
Composition is more important because it tells what a rock is made of. While the texture of a rock can be the same as many other types.
they were formed by underwater volcanoes

The most important factors that determine the rate at which weathering occurs are the type of rock and the climate. Rainfall affects the rate of weathering.

Some of the most important rock types in geology are Igneous Rock & Metamorphic Rock.

The most important factor is the method by which the rock was formed. Methods of rock formation would include compaction and cementation of sediments, slow and quick cooling from magma, and metamorphism of existing rock by heat and pressure. These rock formation methods will affect a rock's mineral alignment, crystal size, and arrangement, giving it observable and testable texture characteristics.
