Two of the most common fates of igneous rocks are to become sediment (and later sedimentary rocks) or to become metamorphic rocks.

What are two fates for an ignous rock?
An igneous rock can either be weathered and eroded into sediment, which may then become compacted and cemented to form a sedimentary rock, or it can be subjected to heat and pressure to recrystallize and create a metamorphic rock.

What is igneous rock?
Igneous rock is one of the three main rock types based on the method of its formation. It is also referred to as plutonic or volcanic rock depending on where it formed. In a nutshell, to be classified as igneous, a rock must have crystallized and solidified from molten rock (magma) either below ground (intrusive igneous rock) or at or near the surface (extrusive igneous rock).

What are two processes a rock must undergo before it can become in an igneous rock?
Two processes a rock must undergo before becoming an igneous rock are melting, where the rock is heated to a point where it turns into magma, and cooling, where the magma solidifies to form an igneous rock.
What are two main classifications of igneous rocks?
The two types of igneous rock are are intrusive and extrusive, depending on where they form. Intrusive igneous rock forms underground from slow cooling magma. Extrusive igneous rock forms at or near the surface from quick cooling lava.
Which two rocks could be cut into building blocks to make walls of buildings?
Igneous rock and Meta-igneous rock.
What does extrusive rock means?
Extrusive igneous rock is one of two different types of igneous rocks. The other kind is intrusive igneous rock. Intrusive igneous rock is formed when magma in Earth's lithosphere cools and hardens. Extrusive igneous rock is formed when lava on Earth's surface cools and hardens.
What are two examples of igneous rock?
Granite and Basalt.

When molten rock cooled on the moon what type of rock did it become?
They become igneous rock. Anorthosite and basalt are the two primary igneous rocks on the surface of the moon.
