Solution
The correct option is C Igneous rocks Igneous rock, or magmatic rock, is one of the three main rock types, the others being sedimentary and metamorphic. Igneous rock is formed through the cooling and solidification of magma or lava. Igneous rocks are divided into two groups, intrusive or extrusive, depending upon where the molten rock solidifies.
