Porphryitic igneous rock is composed of phenocrysts embedded in a finer matrix.
Aphanitic and Phaneritic.
APHANITIC- it is fine grained
PHANERITIC- Coarse grained
a mineral

The two textures of metamorphic rocks are the Foliate and Non-foliate textures.
An igneous rock has two different textures. Extrusive rocks generally are smooth and glassy. Intrusive rocks are generally coarse
Rough and smooth would be the two basic textures.
The displacement between two bodies of rock is called the fault.

Textures has two syllables.
There are two types of cheesecakes: Chilled and baked. They use different recipes and have different textures. Both are good.
Igneous rock is a category of rocks a parent rock can be igneous metamorphic or sedimentary
The displacement between two bodies of rock is called the fault.
The texture of an igneous rock refers to the size of its mineral crystals. If the common magma of both igneous rocks has experienced differences in cooling rates due to depth, they will have different textures. Slow cooling produces large crystals, and quick cooling produces small crystals. Granite and rhyolite are two igneous rocks sharing the same mineral composition, but having undergone different rates of magma cooling due to depth at solidification.
