A

A solid body can experience deformation under applied forces, indicating it is not perfectly rigid.

B

The deformation of a material occurs without any restoring forces acting within it.

C

Elasticity refers only to the stretching of materials and does not involve compression.

D

Deformation of a solid is always permanent and does not return to its original shape.
