The most common extrusive igneous rock is basalt. Other examples include rhyolite, andesite and obsidian. Extrusive igneous rocks erupt quickly and they form small crystals. Some of these rocks cools slowly that they form glass. These rocks includes andesite, basalt, dacite, obsidian, pumice, rhyolite, scoria and tuff.

The cause of the change in insect characteristics occurred when a few survivors of the 1st spray became resistant to the insecticide. When they had offspring, those insect babies are born with the trait that made them resistant to insecticide. This occurs when the parents pass on the trait to their offspring. The end result is that the insecticide is less effective and more insects survive.
