Plutonic is the type of igneous rock formed under the surface.

Igneous rocks are formed due to cooling and solidification of magma.

Igneous rocks have two types-.

1) Volcanic rocks which are formed on the earth surface.

2) Plutonic rocks which are formed at a considerable depth below the earth surface.

So I think plutonic is the very accurate answer.

1. Plutonic rock are those whose at depth more than 35 m.eg - granit,diorite.
2. Hypabsal rock are those at moderate depth less than 35 m. eg- dolerite.
3. Volcanic rocks are those which is at a surface of earth. eg- basalt.
