The leaves of a plant absorb sunlight in order to help the plant make food. A plant with large, broad leaves is more likely to absorb more sunlight than a plant with small, narrow leaves. The pictures below show four different types of plant leaves.

Which plant is most likely to survive in a shady area that receives little sunlight?
A.
W
B.
Y
C.
X
D.
Z

In a shady area that receives little sunlight, a plant with larger, broader leaves is typically better adapted to absorb the limited light available. Therefore, without seeing the specific pictures of the leaves, I would suggest that the plant with the largest and broadest leaves among W, X, Y, or Z is most likely to survive in such conditions.

If you can provide more details on the characteristics of each plant's leaves, I can help determine which one is most suitable for a shady area.
