Respuesta :

They may have small crystals

ANSWER:

Extrusive igneous rocks are characterized by a fine-grained and glassy texture. These rocks are formed because of crystallization of magma on the surface of the earth.

EXPLANATION:

  • Extrusive igneous rocks cool very quickly near the surface of the earth which does not allow their crystals to grow much in size.
  • In contrast, intrusive igneous rocks are formed because of crystallization of magma under the surface of the earth. Intrusive igneous rocks have large crystals.
