What does creation of metamorphic rocks have to do with plastic deformation?

Geography

pychu [463]4 years ago

Plastic deformation occurs when pressure is applied to a substance and this results in a change of shape of the solid. This occurs to rocks when they undergo metamorphism by pressure. A metamorphic rock is formed by the transformation of preexisting solid rocks under the influence of temperature and pressure. Extreme pressure in metamorphism causes some rocks to be foliated or have a banded appearance. Granite undergoes metamorphism to form gniess.

<span>Metamorphic rocks are rocks formed by modification in the interior of the Earth through metamorphism with heat, pressure and chemical fluids. Plastic deformation is the mode of deformation in which the material does not return to its original norm after being deformed with irreversible thermodynamic changes. Both are related in that the metamorphic rocks were created by means of modification by thermal changes among others and the plastic deformation does not make a creation but a deformation, however, both refer to the change that the rocks and their behavior can have by means of treatments.</span>

According to the United Nations World Population Prospects, Japan has a TFR of 1.27. Based on this figure, which of the followin
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

It is least likely that Japan will be experiencing population growth.

Explanation:

Japan is a country that has a very large population for a country of its size, over 120 million people. Japan though, faces huge demographic problems, which will be more and more serious as the years pass by. The problems now are not that the population is very large, but that the population is aging and will start to experience sharp decrease in the coming decades.

The total fertility rate (TFR) of the country is only 1.27, which is far from enough for simple replacement of the population, as for that a TFR of 2 is needed. Less and less children are born, which in turn provides smaller and smaller population for reproduction with each generation. On the other hand, Japan is a country that has one of the highest life expectancy in the world, and the old population is constantly on the rise.

Such situation brings in lot of economic problems, as very soon the number of old people will equal the number of people of working age, and that is almost impossible to be managed. The Japanese governments have been trying to persuade the young people to form a family and have more children, but the reality is the opposite, as more and more young people decide to be solitary, not form a family, and if they do, they tend to have one child, or maybe two.
