2 old: This is the correct answer. An "elderly fall victim" describes an old person who has been involved in an accident. An "elderly (person)" is someone who is old. Example: "I work with the elderly, because it makes me feel more attractive." A "fall victim" is someone who has suffered a "fall": a sudden drop to the floor.
2 fragile: This is incorrect. "Elderly" and "fragile" are not synonymous terms (although "elderly people" can often be "fragile"). "Fragile" is synonymous with "delicate". Example: This sculpture is very fragile, please handle it with care.
