Are pyroclasts formed by basaltic magma or andesitic magma?
Pyroclasts can be formed of any type of magma. However, they are more likely to form with andesitic than basaltic magma. Rhyolitic magma will also readily form pyroclasts.
Which type of rock does magma form when it hardens?
Igneous
If magma crystallizes before it reaches Earths surface will it form an igneous rock?
Yes. It will form a type of igneous rock that is referred to as an intrusive igneous rock.
How can you get different igneous rocks from the same magma body?
Magma underground may differentiate and form different intrusive igneous rock. Magma from the magma body may erupt, cool, quickly, and form fine-grained extrusive igneous rock, or partially remain underground and form intrusive igneous rock. The type of igneous rock formed from the magma body will largely depend on whether or not it is erupted, and the speed of its cooling.
What is a type of rock formed when lava or magma cools?

Are pyroclasts formed by basaltic magma or andesitic magma?
Pyroclasts can be formed of any type of magma. However, they are more likely to form with andesitic than basaltic magma. Rhyolitic magma will also readily form pyroclasts.
What is the type of magma contain a lot of silica and water vapor is?
The three types of magma, named for the rock they form are basaltic, rhyolitic and andesitic. Rhyolitic magma is rich in silica and water vapor.
What is the difference of andesitic and andesite?
Andesite is a type of extrusive igneous rock with moderate levels of silica. Andesitic is an adjective used to describe volcanic material with the composition of andesite. For example, andesitic lava will cool to form andesite.
Which type of rock does magma form when it hardens?
Igneous
What are the 3 types of magma?
basaltic magma ,Andesitic magma and Rhyolitic magma
What type of rock is made from hot magma?

What type of rock contains lava or magma?
The type of rock that contains lava or magma is an igneous rock.
What type of rock is magma made of?
Magma IS made of melted rock and minerals. Not what type of rock. All types of rock.
If magma crystallizes before it reaches Earths surface will it form an igneous rock?
Yes. It will form a type of igneous rock that is referred to as an intrusive igneous rock.
What type of feature can form when magma hardens horizontal layers of rock?
Sill (D)
What type of rock is made by fire?
Igneous rock is not necassarily made of fire, it is made of magma melting to form it.
