The desert and tundra biomes have very different temperatures as well as extremely different plants and animals. The desert can get very hot during the day, but cool off quickly at night. It has sandy soil and supports very little plant life. Animals found in the desert include lizards, javelinas, Gila monsters, coyotes, bobcats, scorpions, and kangaroo rats. The tundra is cold, dry, and often dark. The average temperature is about 10°F. The soil below the surface is permanently frozen, and is called permafrost. A few types of plants grow during the short summer season. Animals found in the tundra include caribou, foxes, wolves, and Arctic hares.

Answer: it is the rock formed within the rocks crust.

Explanation: Rocks formed from magma are called igneous rocks. Intrusive igneous rocks form when magma cools inside the Earth. Rocks that form from magma erupting onto the Earth's surface are called extrusive igneous rocks. Extrusive igneous rocks have little to no time to crystallize and, as a result, the crystals are very small or microscopic.
