What is the difference between intrusive and intrusive.
What else can I help you with?
how does knowing the prefixes in- and ex- help you remember the differ-ence between an intrusion and an extrusion?

What do an intrusion and an extrusion tell us about the rock layers?
(Intrusion) You can learn how old the rock layers are around it. the rock layers around under and all around the intrusion are always older than the intrusion itself. (EXTRUSION) the layers of rock bellow the extrusion is older than the extrusion.
How can you tell the difference between an intrusion and extrusion if there is a layer of sandstone on top?
An intrusion is formed when magma pushes into surrounding rock layers, creating intrusive features like veins or sills, which would be visible beneath the layer of sandstone. In contrast, an extrusion occurs when magma is ejected onto the surface as lava, forming extrusive features like lava flows or volcanic cones above the sandstone layer. The presence of different types of volcanic features would help distinguish between an intrusion and an extrusion in this scenario.

Is an extrusion older or younger than the rock layer below it?
Extrusion is older than intrusion because, an extrusion is always younger than the rocks below it. An intrusion is always younger than the rock layers around and beneath it. Hope the answers correct ;)
What clues does extrusion tell geologists?
Geologists study where intrusion and extrusion formed in relation to other rock layers. This helps geologists understand the relative ages of the different types of rock! Hope it helps;)😊
Can geologists use radioactive dating to find the absolute ages of extrusion or the intrusion?
yes they can they did it with aborinies
Which happened first intrusion or extrusion?
Either or both together. Really they are companion actions but the ratio between them will depend on the specific site. However the magma has to be intruded into the solid crust before it can break surface as an extrusive event - a volcanic eruption.
How does the age of a rock layer compare with an igneous intrusion that is through it or an igneous rock extrusion above it?
If it is above it, the rock layer came after the intrusion. if the intrusion went through the rock layer is older because they layer had to be there in order for the intrusion to go through.
How does the age of an igneous extrusion compare with the rock into which it was extruded?
An igneous intrusion is younger than the rock into which it intruded.
