Solution

The correct option is A Fallen, fallen
Growth of population refers to the change in the number of inhabitants of a country/territory during a specific period of time, say during the last ten years. Till 1980, high birth rates and declining death rates led to a large difference between birth rates and death rates resulting in higher rates of population growth. Since 1981, birth rates have also started declining gradually, resulting in a gradual decline in the rate of population growth.
