Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Granite is a plutonic rock, which means it is formed deep underground by the cooling and solidification of magma. It is not extrusive because it does not form on the Earth's surface and is not volcanic because it is not the result of volcanic activity. It is also not metamorphic because it has not been changed by heat and pressure.
