Over hundreds of years

Explanation:

Environmental changes occur as a result of human action and natural processes. These changes leads to the disruption in the normal environmental processes. Examples of human actions include release of pollutants into the atmosphere, overcrowding and destroy of plants and animals habitats etc while the natural causes include earthquakes and the end results include climate changes.

The greatest time frame in which a short-term environmental change can occur is over hundred of years as environmental changes are normally known to occur after several thousands and millions of years.

igneous rocks which formed by the crystallization of magma at the surface of the earth called extrusive rocks. they are characterized by fine-grained textures because the rapid cooling at or near the surface did not provide enough time for large crystals to grow.
