Vesicles are rounded spaces that appear in igneous rocks from the solidification of the magma around gas bubbles. Pumice, scoria, and vesicular basalt are igneous rocks that contain vesicles.

an igneous rock.
the holes in extrusive igneous rocks (lava) are called vesicles. They are formed by gas escaping from the rock when molten, leaving bubbles in the melt which which may be preserved when the lava solidifies
Igneous Rock
Extrusive igneous rock is formed from cooling lava.
Vesicles.
Extrusive igneous rock is formed from rapidly cooling lava.
* Vesicular rock texture is generally displayed in extrusive igneous rocks which contain many vesicles of trapped air, such as pumice or scoria. * Igneous rocks containing holes which were produced as gases escaped from the upper part of lava flow.
Rock that forms from molten rock that cools and solidifies is called igneous rock.
Igneous rock is formed.
Igneous rock is formed when magma cools and becomes solid.

Obsidian is an igneous rock.
Extrusive igneous rock such as basalt, rhyolite, pumice, and obsidian.
It is called an intrusive igneous rock.
Cooling and solidifying magma turns into igneous rock.
