Well that will be intrusive igneous rocks, extrusive forms inside the earths crust
A fine-grained igneous rock forms from magma cooling quickly at or near the surface of the Earth. This rapid cooling prevents large mineral crystals from forming, resulting in a fine-grained texture with small mineral grains. Examples of fine-grained igneous rocks include basalt and rhyolite.
A fine grained igneous rock forms from Lava that escapes from the earth crust to the surface and cools and solidifies rapidly.

Yes. Exactly, they do have both, fine grained and coarse grained rocks.
A fine-grained igneous rock forms from magma cooling quickly at or near the surface of the Earth. This rapid cooling prevents large mineral crystals from forming, resulting in a fine-grained texture with small mineral grains. Examples of fine-grained igneous rocks include basalt and rhyolite.
A fine-grained igneous rock would likely weather faster than a coarse-grained igneous rock. This is because the smaller grains in a fine-grained rock provide more surface area for weathering processes to act upon, leading to quicker breakdown and erosion.
when the lava cools quickley it is fine-grained

Methods of formation. If crystalline (igneous or metamorphic) they would most likely have had differing rates of cooling. If sedimentary, they would most likely have had differing depositional environments (higher energy for larger grain sizes).

Basalt and gabbro are both igneous rocks, with major differences in grain size and where they form. Basalt has fine-grained crystals and forms from lava flows on the Earth's surface, while gabbro has coarse-grained crystals and forms from magma cooling beneath the Earth's surface.
Basalt is the igneous rock that forms when basaltic lava cools and hardens. It is fine-grained and dark in color, typically containing minerals such as pyroxene and plagioclase.
