Answer:
The rocks which are formed when molten magma cools and solidifies are called primary rocks. They are also known as Igneous rocks. They are called so because they were the first type of rock to be formed and they also provide materials for the formation of other rocks. The two types of Primary rocks are 1.) Intrusive Igneous rocks 2.) Extrusive Igneous rocks.
Fun fact - They are also called parent rocks.
