Igneous rocks are formed as magma solidifies on the earth surface.

The process that might have formed this rock is:

A. melting underground, violent volcanic eruption, and solidification above ground

<h3>Igneous Rocks</h3>

Igneous rocks are known to be rocks that are formed when the magma melts underground and rises up to the earth surface via volcanic eruptions.

When they rise to the earth surface, they cool and solidify. This process will then result to the production of crystals.

Intrusive and extrusive rocks are formed in this process.

<u>Answer:</u>

Considering the example of Japan, it can be justified that both the primary and the secondary impacts of tectonic hazard cause the most damage.

<u>Explanation: </u>

  • Any tectonic activity of considerable magnitude generates tremors and causes earthquakes and related phenomenons.
  • Japan has consistently been subject to the secondary impacts of such tectonic hazards like earthquakes and tsunamis.
  • The areas close to the coasts of Japan are tectonically active making Japan vulnerable to its aftermaths.
  • Moreover, Japan also has some dormant volcanoes which are a result of tectonic activity.
