PART A: According to "Xenolith," what effect does temperature have on xenoliths?

They become more visible as the hot lava erupts or flows from Earth's surface.

They transform into meteorites if they become too heated while crashing into Earth.

They form xenocrysts if they become too cool because of the surrounding air or water.

They develop different characteristics if exposed to extremely hot temperatures.
