The correct answer is igneous. Igneous rocks are formed when lava (molten rock) from a volcano cools and solidifies. To determine the answer to this question, one could use their knowledge of rock formation processes. Lava is molten rock that is ejected from a volcano during an eruption. When this lava reaches the Earth's surface, it rapidly cools down and solidifies to form igneous rocks. Therefore, it is important to understand the process of volcanic activity and how it contributes to the formation of different types of rocks.
