Wulfang
Hello, Wulfang. To lend more credence to your interpretation of (C), I think a present perfect tense would be in order, as in, their populations have been declining dramatically since the 1970s. As for the missing dramatically in (D) and (E), remember, you can only take as gospel what is in the non-underlined (sorry, I had to do it) portion of the sentence. You cannot look to the underlined part of any answer choice and say that a certain element must appear there. The real issue is that (D) and (E) are too similar.
Good questions. I hope my response proves useful to you.

Is there a word like populations? That is the only reason I eliminated those choices

Hello, Saiharish98. Yes, populations is a counting word, similar in this usage to numbers, as I explain in my post just above in my analysis for choice (C). I hope it helps; if not, feel free to inquire further.
