2. Answer
Extrusive – Lava that cools and solidifies on the Earth’s surface forms an Igneous Rock with a fine grained texture
Instrusive – Magma that cools and solidifies inside the Earth’s surface forms Igneous Rock with a course grained texture

3. Did you know…?
Pumice is an unusual, lightweight rock formed when molten rock is rapidly blown out of a volcano, forming bubbles as it quickly loses pressure and cools at the same time.

5. Closure Question
How does the cooling rate of lava or magma affect the texture of an igneous rock?

6. Conclusion Answer
Slow cooling magma = course-grained. Quick cooling magma = fine- grained.
