Explanation:

The fall of Rome happened when the Western Roman Empire was unable to maintain its rule in the vast territory during many events like the invasions of the barbarian tribes, the rise of the Eastern Empire, and economic troubles. But this event didn't stop the Catholic Church from spreading its roots.

The reasons for this growth were: the church was quite organized economically, politically and socially, most of the people chose Christianity as their religion, and even the families ensured that their future generations were also Catholic.

Hence, the options C, D, and E correctly describe the growth of the Catholic Church during the fall of Rome.
