What is an igneous intrusion between two sedimentary rock layers?
A laccolith is an igneous formation between two sedimentary layers
What geologic law is applied if an igneous intrusion is observed through a layer of sedimentary rock?
law of crosscutting relationships.
How can an igneous or sedimentary rock become metamorphic?
In simple terms...undergoing additional heat and pressure from a more recent igneous intrusion which change the structure and minerology.
What type of rock is a laccolith?
A laccolith is an igneous intrusion that has been forced between two sedimentary rock strata creating a lens.
Where can one purchase intrusion detection systems?
Intrusion detection systems can be purchased online at various vendors' websites, such as ADT. There are also local companies that specialize in intrusion detection systems, whose contact information may be found in a phonebook.
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.

What is the different between intrusion and extrusion?
What is the difference between intrusive and intrusive.
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 ;)
Can geologists use radioactive dating to find the absolute ages of extrusion and intrusion?
yes

What are the relative ages of igneous intrusion and overlying sedimentary rock layers that dome upward?
The intrusion is younger than the overlying sedimentary rock.
Magma that forces its way into rocks and hardens is called a extrusion or fault or unconformity or intrusion?
Magma that forces its way into rocks and hardens is called intrusion.
