Answer:

The answer is An igneous rock

Step-by-step explanation:

Igneous rocks are those that form when magma (molten rock) cools and solidifies. If cooling occurs slowly below the surface, rocks with large crystals called plutonic or intrusive rocks are formed; Where magma, surrounded by pre-existing rocks, cools slowly, allowing minerals to form large crystals, visible to the naked eye.
