Scientists divide rocks into groups based on what?

Rocks are grouped by how they are formed. There are 3 types of rocks. Sedimentary, Metamorphic, and Igneous rock. Sedimentary rocks are made from broken down rocks, called sediment, which come from all three rocks. Metamorphic rocks come from existing rocks that are changed by heat and pressure. The Igneous rocks are formed from magma that rose up to the surface, also known as lava. When the lava cools and hardens it forms igneous rocks. That is a rock cycle.

Igneous rocks all come from what type of material?

Igneous rocks are formed from the solidification of lava or magma . When an igneous rock cools and hardens above ground, it cools quickly, resulting in a little to no grained rock. This is called an extrusive rock. An example of an extrusive rock is obsidian. When an igneous rock forms below ground, it cools slowly, resulting in a well developed mineral composition, with large crystals. Granite is an example of an intrusiveigneous rock.
