Magma that forces across rock layers hardens into a

a.
sill.
b.
volcanic neck.
c.
dike.
d.
batholith.

Answer 1

Answer: Option 'C' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Magma that forces across rock layers hardens into a "Option C "due to which it makes it slant.

Between horizontal layers of rock, magma gets squeezed which form sill that is similar to "Option C".

Core of many mountains ranges is made by Batholith.

When the large amount of magma is cooled inside the surface of Earth, the mass of rock are formed.

Hence, option 'C' is correct.

Answer 2

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. Magma that forces across rock layers hardens into a dike. A dike or dyke, in geological usage, is a sheet of rock that formed in a fracture in a pre-existing rock body. Dikes can be either magmatic or sedimentary in origin.
