Lectins, a type of protein found in many plant foods, can cause damage to the lining of your gastrointestinal tract or your organs and interfere with metabolism when consumed in large amounts, according to a study published in Toxicon in September 2004. However, they may also have some health benefits.
When most people think of igneous rock they vision a volcano erupting pumice and lava. Igneous rocks form directly by crystallization from materials from a magma melt. Igneous rocks crystalize after the magma reaches the earth's surface. Igneous rock is divided into 2 groups, extrusive and intrusive. Extrusive rocks form when magma flows onto the surface of the earth or floor of the ocean through deep cracks or fissures and at volcanic vents, and then cools and hardens.
You'd cool it by putting it into the refrigerator until it hardens. Similarly, liquid magma also turns into a solid â a rock â when it is cooled. Any rock that forms from the cooling of magma is an igneous rock. Magma that cools quickly forms one kind of igneous rock, and magma that cools slowly forms another kind. When magma rises from deep within the earth and explodes out of a volcano, it is called lava, and it cools quickly on the surface. Rock formed in this way is called extrusive igneous rock.
