Intrusive igneous rocks. These have large crystals because it is warmer underground, therefore it has more time to cool, therefore the crystals have more time to form and grow, thus large crystals.
Magma is molten rock that bubbles up along ocean ridges to form new crust. Another way that magma forms new crust is when it is expelled out of a volcano and becomes lava, which cools and hardens into crust.
When magma intrudes into existing rock, the process is known as "igneous intrusion." This can lead to the formation of various types of igneous rocks, depending on the composition and cooling rate of the magma. The surrounding rock is often altered by heat and pressure, creating metamorphic features. Common forms of igneous intrusions include plutons, sills, and dikes.
Yes. Magma is underground molten rock.
Magma that is ejected during a volcanic eruption forms extrusive igneous rocks. They are also referred to as volcanic rocks.
Low silica magma forms rocks like basalt and gabbro. These rocks are dense, fine-grained, and dark in color. They are commonly found in oceanic crust and volcanic islands.

Lava and magma are two forms of melted rocks
Yes. Magma is underground molten rock.

The magma cools and forms both rocks

Igneous rock is what forms when magma cools and hardens.
Basaltic magma usually forms a black rock.
Igneous rocks are formed underground from a very hot substance called magma. As magma cools and hardens under extreme pressure, it forms igneous rocks.
