The answer is option ⇒1
Step-by-step explanation:
The age-structure pyramid, also known as a population pyramid, is a graphical representation of a population's age and gender distribution. It consists of two bar charts, one for males and one for females, with the ages displayed along the horizontal axis and the percentage or number of individuals in each age group displayed along the vertical axis.
In a population pyramid, if the width of the bars decreases as age increases, it indicates that the population is experiencing rapid growth. This means that there is a high number of young individuals and a relatively low number of older individuals. This is indicative of a growing population.
