Igneous rocks are classified as rocks that originated from the liquid phase, specifically from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava.
they are classified into 3 major kinds of rocksthey are the ;IGNEOUS ROCKS,SEDIMENTARY ROCKS,AND METAMORPHIC ROCKS
Igneous rocks can be classified by their method of formation and by their mineralogy.
Volcanic rocks are classified as extrusive igneous rocks, forming from the solidification of lava.
No, igneous rocks are not classified by their shape. They are primarily classified based on their origin (either intrusive or extrusive) and their texture (coarse-grained, fine-grained, glassy, etc.). Shape or form is not a major factor in the classification of igneous rocks.

Mantle rock is classified as ultramafic igneous rock.
Igneous rocks that result from lava solidifying above ground are classified as extrusive igneous rocks. These rocks cool quickly, leading to small mineral grains and a fine-grained texture. Examples include basalt and rhyolite.

yes
Intrusive and Extrusive.
They are rocks formed from magma that cools and crystallizes on the earth surface.
Rocks are labeled by 3 groups. Igneous, Metamorphic, and Sedimentary.
