Describe the texture of a rock that formed both intrusively and extrusively (porphyritic).

Geography
1 answer:
bulgar [2K]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

The porphyritic texture is very common in igneous rocks, it consists of larger crystals (phenocrysts) that are embedded in a fine-grained groundmass or matrix (I annexed an image of this structure). This kind of texture indicates that the magma sat and cooled a bit below the Earth's surface, giving time for the large crystals to grow, before erupting onto the surface and cooling very quickly.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

, permafrost is ground, including rock or (cryonic) soil, at or below the freezing point of water 0 °C (32 °F) for two or more years. Most permafrost is located in high latitudes (in and around the Arctic and Antarctic regions), but at lower latitudes alpine permafrost occurs at higher elevations. Ground ice is not always present, as may be in the case of non-porous bedrock, but it frequently occurs and it may be in amounts exceeding the potential hydraulic saturation of the ground material.
