Rocks formed under the surface of the Earth over a long period of time from cooling magma are called intrusive igneous rocks. At or near the surface, cooling lava creates extrusive igneous rock. Intrusive igneous rocks, like granite, will have visible, easily identifiable crystals which are due to the long amount of time spent in the crystal formation temperature range. Extrusive igneous rocks, like basalt, will not have visible crystals (seeing them requires magnification) due to the short amount of time spent in the crystal formation temperature range of the lava.
Igneous rock is formed when magma cools and becomes solid.
igneous rock
The rock formed from molten rock is called igneous rock. It is formed when magma cools and solidifies either underground as intrusive rock or on the Earth's surface as extrusive rock.
igneous rock
No, igneous rocks are formed from molten rock (Lava, or Magma).
Molten rock is still a liquid. Igneous rock is what is formed when molten rock solidifies.
Igneous rock is formed.
Igneous rock is formed when magma cools and becomes solid.

igneous rock
The igneous rock is formed when a rock that is solidified from molten or partly molten matierial.
No. Igneous rock forms from the cooling of molten material.
No, igneous rocks are formed from molten rock (Lava, or Magma).
igneous rock
That is correct.
When molten rock solidifies it forms igneous rock.
