Here is the answer to the given question above. The ways in which Gabbro and Basalt are different and what we can infer from this about how these two kinds of igneous rocks form is that, Gabbro contains olivine feldspar, and other minerals and basalt is a dark colored rock that is low in silica. Hope this answers the question.
