METAMORPHIC!
Andesite is a nonfoliated rock, meaning it does not have a layered or banded appearance like foliated rocks such as slate or schist. Andesite forms from volcanic activity and solidifies without undergoing the intense pressure and heat required for foliation to occur.
Folation is a term that applies to metamorphic rocks. Quartz is a single mineral that does not necessarily occur in metamorphic rocks. It can appear in foliated rocks such as gneiss as well as non foliated rocks such as quartzite.
Marble is a nonfoliated metamorphic rock made of carbonate minerals, particularly calcite. It is formed by the metamorphism or limestone. Gneiss is a foliated metamorphic rock made of silicate minerals such as quartz and feldspars, and micas. It forms from the metamorphism of granite or schist.
Depends on the rock! Here are some you can use for normal rocks. (Don't use them all, use them according to what the rock you are thinking of is like.)SmoothBumpyRoughSharpColdUnevenPorous
Intrusive or plutonic igneous rocks are terms used to describe rocks that crystallize inside the Earth's crust from magma that cools slowly beneath the surface. These rocks have large mineral grains due to their slow cooling process and are typically coarse-grained in texture. Examples include granite, diorite, and gabbro.

False. The terms folidated and nonfoliated apply to metamorphic rocks.

A porphyritic texture can be a feature of igneous rocks, but 'porphyritic' is not used to describe metamorphic rock texture. Metamorphic rocks can be foliated or non-foliated, terms used to describe mineral alignment or banding, or the lack thereof.
In subject of metamorphic rocks, to be foliated is to have their grains arranged in parallel layers or bands. Non foliated is when the rocks' grains are made randomly in no arranged pattern.Reference:Prentice Hall Earth Science 2009
Bituminous coal is a non-foliated rock. It is a sedimentary rock formed from the compaction and alteration of plant material, which does not exhibit any foliation or layering like metamorphic rocks do.
Marble is a nonfoliated metamorphic rock made of carbonate minerals, particularly calcite. It is formed by the metamorphism or limestone. Gneiss is a foliated metamorphic rock made of silicate minerals such as quartz and feldspars, and micas. It forms from the metamorphism of granite or schist.
Metamorphic rocks are classified as being foliated or being non-foliated. Foliated metamorphic rocks have visible banding or sheet-like layering. Slate, phyllite, gneiss, and schist are foliated metamorphic rocks. Non-foliated metamorphic rocks do not display banding or layering. Marble and quartzite are non-foliated metamorphic rocks. Metamorphic rocks can also be classified as either regional metamorphic rocks or contact metamorphic rocks, depending on their method of formation.
