Ans :- (d) Quartz and mica are only minerals

Igneous :- (Igneous Rocks areprimary rocks and they are formed by cooling,solidification of moltenearth materials, known as magma) e.g. Granite.

Sedimentary :-  (Sedimentary Rocks constituted of sediments, a material from wind or running water that settle down) e.g. limestone.
