GENERAL GEOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -These are the rocks that form at erupting volcanoes and oozing fissures. The magma, called lava when molten rock erupts on the surface, cools and solidifies almost instantly when it is exposed to the relatively cool temperature of the atmosphere.

Detailed explanation-2: -When lava comes out of a volcano and solidifies into extrusive igneous rock, also called volcanic, the rock cools very quickly. Crystals inside solid volcanic rocks are small because they do not have much time to form until the rock cools all the way, which stops the crystal growth.

Detailed explanation-3: -What is the main difference between intrusive and extrusive igneous rocks? The difference between intrusive and extrusive igneous is that, intrusive rock is one that forms when magma cools within Earth. Extrusive igneous rock is one that, forms when lava cools on Earths surface.
