Answer :

Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines 'populus' as 'a genus of trees (family Salicaceae) that is native to the northern hemisphere, that has resinous buds, numerous stamens, incised bracts, and elongated stigmas, and that is well known in cultivation.'

Cambridge English Dictionary defines 'populous' as 'A populous country, area, or place has a lot of people living in it.'

Cambridge English Dictionary defines 'population' as 'all the people living in a particular country, area, or place.'

So, from the above definitions we derive that 'populous' is the most suitable word to fill in the blank.

So, the correct sentence is :

Did you know Hong Kong is one of the world's most populous cities?
