Answer:

Option C, its PPF shifts outward, is the right answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Option “c” is correct because the growth in the economy shows two things. First, the output of the economy has increased during a particular period of time. Secondly, it shows that the potential of the economy has increased. This means its productivity to produce has increased. Therefore, in such cases, the PPF curve shifts rightwards and this rightwards shift in PPF shows the economic growth
