Correct Answer: has grown rapidly


Solution : The correct choice is the second option.

Explanation:
The sentence should be in the present perfect tense ("has grown"), which correctly indicates an action that started in the past (since independence) and continues to the present moment. The auxiliary verb has should be followed by the participle form of the verb i.e., grown to match the structure needed for the present perfect tense.

Therefore, the correct sentence should be: "The GDP of the country has grown rapidly since independence.
