Answer the following question given this paragraph: Some extrusive igneous rocks cool so rapidly that crystals do not develop at all. These form a glass, such as obsidian.

It is the rock that makes up the ocean floor. Shown below are three types of extrusive igneous rocks ( Figure below ). Q: What helps pumice float in water? Choices: - high density - large mass - gravity - gas bubble holes A:
gas bubble holes
