What does ingeous mean?

Answer 1

Solidified magma or lava.

Igneous rock (derived from the Latin word ignis meaning fire)

Igneous rock may form with or without crystallization, either below the surface as intrusive (plutonic) rocks or on the surface as extrusive (volcanic) rocks.

Answer 2

An igneous rock is a rock that is formed by volcanos. Over 85% of rocks on the earth are igneous. These rock can be classified into felsic or mafic depending on the lava or magma is was made from. Igneous rocks can also be classified into intrusive or extrusive. If intrusive then the rock cooled slowly and created big crystals. If extrusive then the rock cooled slowly outside of the volcano, creating small crystals. Hope this helps!

Answer 3

Igneous rock is one of the three main rock types based on the method of its formation. It is also referred to as plutonic or volcanic rock depending on where it formed. In a nutshell, to be classified as igneous, a rock must have crystallized and solidified from molten rock (magma) either below ground (intrusive igneous rock) or at or near the surface (extrusive igneous rock).

Answer 4

It seems like there may be a typo in your question. Did you mean "igneous"? If so, igneous refers to rock formed through the cooling and solidification of magma or lava. These rocks are typically hard and can have a crystalline texture.

Answer 5

I could have sworn someone told me before. Oh Yes! It was spy. He said YOUR MOTHER

Answer 6

Igneous is a word that means having solidified from magma or lava. This is a process of rock formation which entails volcanic processes.
