The correct statement that best describes the relationship in the graph is:
• When the population has increased, the arable land per person has decreased.
This is evident from the graph, which shows that as the world population has risen from 1960 to 2020, the arable land per person has decreased, indicating that more people are sharing a diminishing amount of arable land.
• When the population has increased, the arable land per person has decreased.
This is evident from the graph, which shows that as the world population has risen from 1960 to 2020, the arable land per person has decreased, indicating that more people are sharing a diminishing amount of arable land.
