Forms when magma cools. Type of igneous rock depends on the composition of the magma and the time it takes to cool down.
Take longer to cool, so the mineral crystalss have more time to grow. -Where do you think this type of cooling could occur?
cool very quickly, so the mineral crystals have less time to grow. -Where do you think this type of cooling could occur?
Rock formed from cooling and solidifying beneath the Earth’s surface. Usually coarse- grained.
Rock formed from magma that cools above Earth’s surface, usually from eruptions. Quick cooling, fine grained.
