Hi,

The term 'igneous' comes from the Latin language and is the word for 'fire,' which is a very appropriate name due to the fact that igneous rocks originate from fiery, red-hot magma. The deeper in the crust the minerals cool, the larger they can grow.

<u>Plutonic Rocks</u>- Plutonic rocks cool deep below the surface, and are generally coarse texture.

<u>Volcanic </u><u>rocks</u>- They erupt on the surface, and are usually fine-grained, frequently with bubbles or vesicles.

<u>Hypabyssal</u><u>-</u> It is a loose term for rocks that cool at shallow depths. They are often porphyritic, meaning they have large crystals in a fine-grained rock mass.

Hope it helps you...
