Question

which best describes how a recession develops as
the recession enters a recovery period.
the recession slows.
the recession accelerates.
the recession starts and stops.

Explanation:

A recession is a period of economic decline. When a recession develops further, it typically intensifies or accelerates. Entering a recovery period is the end of a recession, slowing would mean the recession is lessening in severity, and starting and stopping is not characteristic of a recession's development. So the recession accelerates as it develops.

Answer:

The recession accelerates.
