Question

what type of rock is this?
igneous
metamorphic
sedimentary

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Igneous rocks are formed from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava. They often have a coarse - grained texture when they cool slowly beneath the Earth's surface (intrusive igneous rocks). The rock in the image has a coarse - grained texture, which is characteristic of intrusive igneous rocks like granite. Metamorphic rocks are formed from pre - existing rocks through heat and pressure and usually have a foliated or non - foliated texture due to the re - arrangement of minerals. Sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation and lithification of sediments (such as sand, silt, etc.) and often have a layered or clastic texture.

Answer:

Igneous
