Difference in temperature of the varying layers of the Earth's surface where either of the rocks solidify,causes difference in size of grains of rocks.When solidified below the Earth's surface,the grains are comparatively larger crystals than extrusive igneous ones.Intrusive rocks form underneath the Earth's surface(eg.,granite). Magma cools slowly so it has time to form large crystals.Extrusive rocks are ones that form from lava (blasted out of a volcano) so they cool very quickly, not allowing large crystals to form(eg.,obsidian).
Intrusive igneous rocks form when magma under the earth's surface cools down very slowly and that gives time for bigger grains to form.
Extrusive igneous rocks form when lava cools down quickly and that doesn't give that much time for big grains to form.
intrusive properties of matter : do not depend on the amount of matter present extrusive : depend on the amount of matter present
Extrusive means that the lava has come out and cooled on the surface. Intrusive means that the lava has cooled in the Earth i.e. underground.
intrusive forms below the earths surface, and extrusive above
Gabbro is an intrusive rock, which means it formed underground. Basalt is an extrusive rock, which means it formed above ground .
The longer that magma is able to cool, the larger the crystals will be. Intrusive rocks will have larger crystals than extrusive rocks. For example granite (intrusive) has larger grains than rhyolite (extrusive).

"intrusive" means forced into something, "extrusive" means forced out onto the surface. The igneous magma reaching the surface is therefore extrusive , producing extrusive igneous rocks, and all the rest of the magma is intrusive, producing intrusive igneous rocks.
Extrusive means that the lava has come out and cooled on the surface. Intrusive means that the lava has cooled in the Earth i.e. underground.

intrusive
Intrusive igneous rocks cool beneath the crustal surface. Extrusive cool above the surface - pillow lavas cool below the sea but above the crust.

What is the difference between intrusive and intrusive.
The crystal growth of intrusive igneous is substantially more so than extrusive igneous. Magma cools quicker on the earth's surface, extrusive igneous formed, as opposed to below the crust, intrusive. Therefore the longer it takes to cool the magma, the more the crystal growth.
igneous Extrusive is cool on the outside of the crust and cools quickly before crystal forms igneous Intrusive is cool on the inside of the crust and cools slowly and allowing crystal to form
Intrusive: An intrusive igneous rock is formed from magma undergroundExtrusive: An extrusive igneous rock is formed from lava outside of the volcano.
instrusive is inside the valcano and exstrusive comes onto earth's crust
