The correct response that describes a way oak trees have adapted to survive in their climate is: They have broad, thin leaves that gather lots of sunlight in the summer, but then they lose these leaves in the fall so that heavy snow cannot break their limbs.

Oak trees are deciduous, meaning they shed their leaves in the fall to avoid the weight of snow and ice, which can damage their branches during winter. This adaptation helps them conserve energy and resources during less favorable conditions.
