It is called extrusive igneous rock.
Magma that reaches the Earth's surface is known as lava.
When magma solidifies before reaching Earth's surface it is called intrusive igneous rock, plutonic rock, a pluton. Igneous rock is formed from crystallization of molten magma.
It is called an igneous rock.Igneous rock is one of the three main rock types, the others being sedimentary and metamorphic rock. Igneous rock is formed through the cooling and solidification of magma or lava. Igneous rock may form with or without crystallization, either below the surface as intrusive (plutonic) rocks or on the surface as extrusive (volcanic) rocks.
The rock that forms from the cooling of lava is called igneous rock. When lava cools and solidifies on the Earth's surface, it is specifically referred to as extrusive igneous rock, such as basalt. If the lava cools slowly beneath the surface, it forms intrusive igneous rock, like granite.
A molten rock that reaches Earth's surface is called lava. It typically erupts from a volcano or fissure in the Earth's crust during volcanic activity. Once it cools and solidifies, it forms igneous rock.
When lava solidifies, it is called igneous rock.

Magma is molten rock beneath the Earth's surface, while lava is molten rock that flows onto the surface during a volcanic eruption. When magma cools and solidifies underground, it forms intrusive igneous rocks, such as granite. When lava cools and solidifies on the surface, it forms extrusive igneous rocks, such as basalt.
The melted rock that forms a volcano is called magma when it is beneath the Earth's surface. Once it erupts and reaches the surface, it is referred to as lava. As lava cools and solidifies, it can create various volcanic landforms, including mountains and islands.
Magma that reaches the surface it is called lava.Molten rock from the Earth's interior that breaks through to the surface is called lava
No. Lava is magma that has reached the surface.
Molten rock from under the surface (called 'magma') that reaches the Earth's surface and flows out is is called 'lava'.
As lava cools and solidifies, it transforms into igneous rock.
