Generation Z News - Latest Characteristics, Research, and Facts
Generation Z (aka Gen Z, iGen, or centennials), refers to the generation that was born between 1996-2010, following millennials. This generation has been raised on the internet and social media, with some the oldest finishing college by 2020 and entering the workforce.
Generation Z is the youngest, most ethnically-diverse, and largest generation in American history, comprising 27% of the US population. Pew Research recently defined Gen Z as anyone born after 1997. Gen Z ¹______ up with technology, the internet, and social media, which sometimes causes them to be stereotyped as tech-addicted, anti-social, or "social justice warriors."
The average Gen Z got their first smart phone just before their twelfth birthday. They communicate primarily through social media and texts, and spend as much time on their phones as older generations do watching television.
The majority of Gen Zs prefer streaming services to traditional cable, as well as getting snackable content they can get on their phones and computers.
Gen Z is the most ethnically diverse and largest generation in American history, and eclipses all other generations before it in embracing diversity and inclusion.

Resolução comentada
Passado simples "grew" de "grow up".
A frase descreve a infância da geração, que já cresceu com tecnologia, então usa o passado simples: "grew up with technology". Essa é a forma verbal que se encaixa na lacuna.
Análise das alternativas
B) "grows" é presente da 3ª pessoa do singular, e "Gen Z" é tratado como coletivo no passado. C) "grow" é presente ou infinitivo. D) "grown" é particípio e precisaria de auxiliar. E) "has grew" é incorreto, pois o particípio de grow é "grown".
