Explanation:

Any natural mass of mineral matter that makes up the earth's crust is called a rock. The earth's crust is made up of various types of rocks of different texture, size and colour.

IGNEOUS ROCKS

Igneous rocks are defined as types of rocks that are formed when molten rock (rock liquefied by intense heat and pressure) cools to a solid-state.

Answer:

A rock is a solid mass of geological materials. Geological materials include individual mineral crystals, inorganic non-mineral solids like glass, pieces broken from other rocks, and even fossils. Igneous rocks form when melted rock cools and solidifies.

Explanation:

Igneous rocks may be simply classified according to their chemical/mineral composition as felsic, intermediate, mafic, and ultramafic, and by texture or grain size: intrusive rocks are course grained (all crystals are visible to the naked eye) while extrusive rocks may be fine-grained (microscopic crystals) or glass.
