What kind of rocks make up the most of the igneous rocks?
Basalt and granite are the most common types of rocks that make up igneous rocks. Basalt is a fine-grained volcanic rock, while granite is a coarse-grained intrusive rock.
Is granite and basalt found in volcanoes?
Yes, both granite and basalt can be found in volcanoes. Basalt is a common type of volcanic rock formed from the rapid cooling of lava, while granite can be present in volcanic environments due to magma cooling and crystallizing beneath the Earth's surface before being exposed through volcanic activity.
