Which of the following is NOT an environment in which an igneous rock forms?

A) explosive eruption of volcanic ash
B) cooling and solidification of lava
C) solidification of magma at depth
D) intense squeezing from tectonic forces
E) all of these are environments that form igneous rock

Tectonic Forces

the forces generated by the movements of Earth's lithospheric plates, responsible for geological features and activities.

Explosive Eruption

A volcanic eruption characterized by the violent expulsion of magma, gases, and volcanic ash into the atmosphere, often with significant force.

Solidification

The process of a liquid turning into a solid, as in the cooling and crystallization of magma to form igneous rock.
