Solution

The correct option is D Plains
In the process of hill shading, steep slopes have dark shadows and the gentle slopes have lighter shadows. Level ground whether high or low are left unshaded.
The representative height of physical features such as plains don't have many slopes. It cannot be potrayed correctly by this method.
