Brief Explanations

The rock in the image has a coarse - grained texture, which is a characteristic of igneous rocks formed from the slow cooling of magma deep within the Earth's crust (like granite, which this rock appears to be). Sedimentary rocks usually have a layered or clastic texture, and metamorphic rocks have foliated or non - foliated textures formed from the alteration of other rocks under heat and pressure. So this rock is an igneous rock.

Answer:

a. Igneous rock
