Where can shading be darker on a sphere?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: On the part away from the light
Shading communicates the rounded form of a sphere by showing how light falls across its curved surface. If the light comes from one direction, the surface facing the light is lighter, the highlight is the brightest area, and the side turned away from the light receives less illumination and becomes darker. Thus option A is correct. The darkest area may occur near the turning point of the form and can be strengthened by reflected-light decisions, but it is not placed on the brightest highlight. Options C and D do not describe meaningful shading on a sphere.
