Answer:
1. Which process changes igneous rock into metamorphic rock?
<u>The temperature, pressure, or fluid environment change, and the igneous rock changes its form and becomes metamorphic.</u>
2. Which process changes sedimentary rock into igneous rock?
<u>With tremendous heat and pressure, the sedimentary rock will melt and be back again to magma. After some time it will cool and harden and will become Igneous.</u>
3. Which process changes metamorphic rock into sedimentary rock?
<u>Metamorphic rocks change into sedimentary rocks through the process of weathering. The metamorphic rock will weather, then come to a place where it will layer down and sedimentary.</u>
9. Metamorphism involves the addition of <u>heat</u> and <u>pressure</u> to pre-existing rocks.
10. The compaction & cementation of sediments form <u>sedimentary</u> rocks.
Answer:
After decades of stability from the 1920s to the early 1970s, the rate of imprisonment in the United States more than quadrupled during the last four decades. The U.S. penal population of 2.2 million adults is by far the largest in the world. Just under one-quarter of the world's prisoners are held in American prisons. The U.S. rate of incarceration, with nearly 1 out of every 100 adults in prison or jail, is 5 to 10 times higher than the rates in Western Europe and other democracies. The U.S. prison population is largely drawn from the most disadvantaged part of the nation's population: mostly men under age 40, disproportionately minority, and poorly educated. Prisoners often carry additional deficits of drug and alcohol addictions, mental and physical illnesses, and lack of work preparation or experience. The growth of incarceration in the United States during four decades has prompted numerous critiques and a growing body of scientific knowledge about what prompted the rise and what its consequences have been for the people imprisoned, their families and communities, and for U.S. society.
The Growth of Incarceration in the United States examines research and analysis of the dramatic rise of incarceration rates and its affects. This study makes the case that the United States has gone far past the point where the numbers of people in prison can be justified by social benefits and has reached a level where these high rates of incarceration themselves constitute a source of injustice and social harm.
The Growth of Incarceration in the United States recommends changes in sentencing policy, prison policy, and social policy to reduce the nation's reliance on incarceration. The report also identifies important research questions that must be answered to provide a firmer basis for policy. The study assesses the evidence and its implications for public policy to inform an extensive and thoughtful public debate about and reconsideration of policies.
