B. A stationary state in which growth will cease.

Explanation:

Malthus Thomas was a British economist that argued against the utopianism that the human race was believed to be tilting towards in his time. He argued that the every increasing human population that was seen as the happiness of a country will bring the economy to a shut down. He argued that available farmlands which is fixed will not be able to meet up with the ever increasing human population, stating that human population increases geometrically while food production from the fixed amount of farmlands increases arithmetically thus producing a stationary state in which growth will cease.

He was opined that at the end, human population will reach a point where they will not be able to produce enough food for themselves. However, his ideology has been criticized and disproved by other economists citing technology advancement and migration.

a stationary state in which growth will cease.

Explanation:

According to Limit to Growth by Malthus, when human population continues to grow and available land is fixed , it will result in a stationary state in which growth will cease.

Land is a finite resource that is subject to depletion. As the human population increases it uses more of the land resources till it is depleted. Then there will be a state when growth will cease since there are no resources to support population increase.
