Why is igneous rock called a mother rock?

Igneous rock is called a "mother rock" because it is the primary rock type from which other types of rocks are formed. When igneous rocks undergo weathering and erosion, they break down into sediments that can be lithified to form sedimentary rocks. Additionally, igneous rocks can be subjected to heat and pressure, leading to their metamorphism into metamorphic rocks. This process of igneous rocks being the origin or "mother" of all rock types is why they are referred to as such.
