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>

Which of the following statements about the postcolonial diet of Pacific Islanders is true?
fgiga [73]
The answer is A. Root crops, including yams, sweet potatoes, and taro, became more common.

The root crops became more common, and practically the basic food source. This was due to the fact that the climate and soil on the Pacific islands were excellent for growing them, and of course for having a sustainable food source.

When the only force acting on a falling object is gravity, the object is said to be
Kazeer [188]

That's the definition of "free fall".

We can never observe free-fall in our daily life on Earth. There's always
at least one other force besides gravity acting on a falling body, because
it's always falling through air.
