Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
Easter Island experienced significant environmental and social changes after human settlement, including deforestation, the invasion of rats, and endemic warfare. However, enslavement was not a change that occurred as a result of the initial human settlement of the island; it happened much later, primarily due to external factors such as European contact and Peruvian slave raids in the 19th century.
