Answer from: sanociahnoel

a. batholith

Explanation:

Granite is an example of igneous rocks . Igneous rocks are rocks formed through the cooling of molten magma or lava. Lava's are molten magma that creeps or erupt to the surface of the earth crust before cooling.

Igneous rocks can be extrusive or intrusive igneous rocks. Extrusive igneous rocks are formed when lava cools rapidly at the surface of the earth to form the rocks while the intrusive igneous rocks are formed when molten magma cools at the interior of the earth crust .

Granite is an example of intrusive igneous or plutonic rocks that are formed from the crystallization of molten magma slowly cooling below the earth surface. The formation of this rocks are slow due to the high temperature available below the earth surface . Granite rocks are plutons .

Plutons are large bodies of intrusive igneous rocks that are usually coarse grain formed at the interior of the earth. A large congregation of plutons are known as batholith.

Generally, Batholith is a very large mass of intrusive igneous rocks forms below the earth crust. The granite dome in Yosemite National park in California has a very large amalgamation of this plutons known as batholith.

Ageologist is working in an area with exposed sedimentary rocks and finds a well exposed sequence of stratified rocks. as he works through a thick sequence of limestone, he sees abundant large clam fossils that produce an interlocking texture suggesting a reef, but within the limestone section these clams disappear and the overlying limestone is made up primarily of fragments of corals. he now moves 50 km away and finds limestones interbedded with shales, and the limestones contain the same clam fossils he had seen previously 50 km away. as he continues through this section, the rocks become entirely limestone, and the clams disappear again with coral fossils above forming a reef structure. he concludes
