Solution

The correct option is D Forest
Forests are divided into three layers- the forest floor, the understory and the canopy. The forest floor is comprised of soil, dead plants and animals and small plants such as grasses and wildflowers. The understory contains small trees or bushes growing beneath the forest canopy without penetrating it to any great extent, but above the forest floor and is also called the shrub layer. The canopy is made of the leaves and branches of the trees that dominate the forest.
