Dikes, sills, and volcano necks are intrusive igneous features formed from magma that solidified beneath the Earth's surface. Dikes are vertical or near-vertical intrusions, sills are horizontal intrusions, and volcano necks are vertical conduits that fed ancient volcanoes. Batholiths are large, deep-seated intrusive bodies that often form the cores of mountain ranges. They are generally larger in size and represent a more massive intrusion compared to dikes, sills, and volcano necks.
Lahars are not examples of intrusive activity. Lahars are fast-flowing mixtures of water, rock debris, and volcanic ash that move down the slopes of a volcano during an eruption or due to melting snow and ice. Intrusive activities include the formation of sills, dikes, laccoliths, and batholiths, which involve the movement of magma into Earth's crust.
Intrusive igneous rocks such as dikes, sills, and batholiths are formed from the cooling and hardening of magma beneath Earth's surface. These structures are formed when magma solidifies underground, creating features like vertical dikes, horizontal sills, and large masses of magma called batholiths.
The four basic types of plutons are batholiths, stocks, dikes, and sills. Batholiths are large masses of intrusive igneous rock that form deep underground, while stocks are smaller intrusions. Dikes are tabular bodies of igneous rock that cut across existing rock layers, and sills are tabular bodies that intrude between existing rock layers.
The main types of igneous intrusions are dikes (vertical tabular bodies), sills (horizontal tabular bodies), laccoliths (intrusions causing overlying strata to arch up), and batholiths (large, dome-shaped intrusive formations).
Intrusive igneous rocks can vary in size from small dikes and sills to large batholiths. Dikes and sills are typically on the smaller end of the size spectrum, ranging from a few centimeters to several meters in width. Batholiths, on the other hand, can cover hundreds to thousands of square kilometers.

dike
Dikes are tabular intrusions that cut across existing rock layers. Sills are tabular intrusions that form parallel to existing rock layers. Laccoliths are mushroom-shaped intrusions with a flat base and a dome-like top. Batholiths are large intrusive rock bodies that cover at least 100 square kilometers in surface exposure. Volcanic necks are columnar intrusions that form when magma solidifies in a volcano's vent.

Plutons
The main types of plutons are batholiths, stocks, laccoliths, dikes, and sills. Batholiths are large intrusions exposed over a large area, while stocks are smaller intrusions. Laccoliths are mushroom-shaped intrusions, dikes are tabular intrusions that cut across existing rock layers, and sills are tabular intrusions that parallel existing rock layers.
It's called an intrusion.Depending on just how the igneous rock (molten rock) enters into the existing rock, you can have dikes, sills, plutons and batholiths.

Entrusive refers to the process of magma or molten rock being forced into surrounding rock formations. This can result in the formation of features such as dikes, laccoliths, and batholiths. Entrusive igneous rocks are formed from this process.
