Extrusive Volcanism
THE FORCES MOVING EARTH'S SURFACE ARE UNDERNEATH EARTH'S SURFACE, IN THE UPPER MANTLE. FWI, these forces are actually huge convection currents in the magma buried under Earth's crust.
Sedimentary rocks form on the Earth's crust, and can form metamorphic rocks when buried. Igneous rocks form under the surface, or when liquid magma reaches the surface as lava.
Magma is under the surface of Earth's crust. Rocks on earth's surface are well ... on Earth's surface. Magma is also molten rock, not solid rock like the rocks on earth's surface.
The magma starts cooling and crystallizing. The crystallization cause the magma to change composition. This is referred to as magma evolution.
