{'molten lava': [1, 0, 0, 0], 'igneous rock': [1, 0, 1, 4], 'basalt rock': [1, 0, 0, 0], 'granite rock': [1, 0, 0, 1], 'solidification': [1, 0, 0, 0], 'volcano': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'magnetite': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'rock': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'example': [18, 0, 1, 11]}

The correct answer is option 1: Igneous Rock. Igneous rocks are formed when molten lava or magma cools and solidifies. In this case, the molten lava from a volcano solidifies and forms rock.

Option 2, Granite Rock, is a type of igneous rock but it specifically refers to a coarse-grained rock made up of quartz, feldspar, and mica.

Option 3, Basalt Rock, is also a type of igneous rock. It is a fine-grained rock that is typically dark in color and is commonly found in volcanic areas.

Option 4, Magnetite, is not related to volcanic activity or the solidification of lava. Magnetite is a mineral composed of iron and oxygen and is not directly formed from volcanic processes.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 1: Igneous Rock.
