The igneous rock forms from lava because when a volcano erupts the lava that flows from a volcano. Igneous rocks have a hot liquid in the beginning. The lava that flows forms into an igneous rock fast. When the lava reaches the surface, it cools rapidly and turns into igneous rock.
Are igneous rocks formed only beneath earth's surface?
No. Intrusive igneous rocks are formed beneath the earth's surface when magma cools and extrusive igneous rocks form when lava extrudes from a volcano and cools.
How does lava become rock?
As the lava is being expelled from the volcano, it cools down and hardens.
How and where are igneous rocks formed?
Igneous rocks are formed on and below the surface of the Earth when lava or magma cools enough to crystallize.
