Answer 1

The human population has grown more and more quickly over time since the development of agriculture.

Option (a);

Step-by-step explanation:

• The growth in agriculture allowed an increase in population over time.
• Agriculture developed with more irrigation facilities and farming machines.
• So, more food could be grown and was available round the year for the
• people to consume.
• With urbanization, food could be transported well across the places.
• A smaller number of people died due to starvation. People settled in towns and cities to do farming.
• Thus, with the overall development of agriculture eventually, health and nutrition improved which led to an increase in population.
