Igneous rocks form when magma cools and hardens. Magma reaches the earth's surface through volcanoes. If magma cools inside the volcano, the igneous rock formed is intrusive; if it cools on the surface, the rock is extrusive. Intrusive rocks have larger crystals due to slower cooling, while extrusive rocks have smaller or no crystals due to faster cooling at the surface. Examples given are the extrusive rocks basalt, obsidian, and pumice, as well as the intrusive rock granite.
