What takes place during the decline stage of a social movement?
a. the social movement expresses widespread discontent about an issue.
b. the social movement finds like-minded people to join.
c. the social movement becomes organized.
d. the social movement begins to fall apart.

The answer is D: The social movement begins to fall apart.

A social movement has many stages, from its point of creation (when an idea for change, reform, or revolution begins to mobilize a group of people following it) to its success or demise (either the success of the instauration of the idea of the falling apart of the movement), and each social movement is unique. However, all social movements could be said to share the two aforementioned moments, and so, when a social movement enters a stage of decline, it can be said that such social movement has begun to fall apart and will soon meet its demise.  

it's like watching a fable, it's not really about the animals but rather it has a meaning that is understood by us and that is implicit, not explicitly said. implicit ideas are common and are used in almost all works of art, from writing to painting to sculpting.
