The size of the crystal relates to how long the crystals were forming. For example crystals that cooled slowly are larger than those cooling faster.
The cooling rate of the magma primarily determines the size of a mineral crystal. Faster cooling rates lead to smaller crystals, while slower cooling rates result in larger crystals. Other factors such as the mineral composition and level of nucleation can also influence crystal size.
that means like when somthing is in a own properties
The crystals will always form according the geometric parameters of the mineral crystal system to which they belong, but the size of the crystals varies depending on the environment in which they form.
There are two types of igneous rocks; intrusive and extrusive. Intrusive igneous rocks are formed underneath the earth's surface from magma where it cools slower and develops large crystal structures. Extrusive igneous rocks are formed above the earth's surface from lava that cools quickly and creates rocks with smaller, finer crystal structures.
The texture and mineral composition of the igneous rock provide key evidence of the environment in which it was formed. Additionally, the presence of features such as vesicles (gas bubbles), crystal size, and orientation can also offer clues about the conditions of formation. Chemical analysis and the rock's relationship to surrounding geological features can also provide valuable information.
it is metamorphic rock
When it is broken down into an individual mineral grain or crystal, in which case it is a mineral.
please anyone else can answer this question I'm in hurry pls.

What is the effect of location on crystal size? Label the location of intrusive and extrusive igneous rocks on the diagram below. Then, illustrate the crystal size of the rock formed at that location in the appropriate callout circles.
No. Streak refers to the color of a powdered mineral. The texture is in reference to a rock's crystal size or orientation.

The composition of the minerals is not a factor that affects the size of mineral crystals formed in magma. The factors that do affect crystal size include cooling rate, amount of water present, and amount of pressure.
