it tells you that the igneous rock formed in two stages,stage one occurred deep into the earth were large crystals formed from and then it eruptedas a volcano in stage two were small crystals formed
Igneous rock is formed from the cooling of magma or lava.
Two types of igneous rock are intrusive (also called plutonic) and extrusive. There is also porphyry rock which is partly intrusive and partly extrusive. Porphyry rock has large crystals embedded in a mass of much smaller crystals. The large crystals formed underground as does intrusive rock, and were carried in lava when it erupted. The mass of smaller crystals formed around the large crystals when the lava cooled quickly above ground, as does extrusive rock.
Yes, because slow cooling facilitates the growth of large crystals.

Igneous rock formed in the earths crust is known as intrusive rock. The magma that forms it cools slowly and therefore, creates rock with large crystals. An example of an intrusive igneous rock is granite.

Intrusive Igneous rock. They are formed voer a long period of itme inside magma chamber creating large crystals.
No, melted rock that cools quickly result in igneous rock with large minerals because large crystals take time to form and the rocks that usually have them are the ones that were formed inside the earth.

Igneous rocks can have both small and large crystals, depending on how quickly they cool. If an igneous rock cools slowly beneath the Earth's surface, it can form large crystals, while rapid cooling at the Earth's surface or in an eruption can result in small or no visible crystals.
Igneous rocks will develop large crystals is they cool slowly underground.
granite
That it cooled very slowly.
Well The Igneous Rock: When it Forms Underground the Pressure combines with Large crystals :)
