Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In the context of inheritance in object-oriented programming, if Y is a derived class, it means Y is inheriting from another class. The statement "Y is a derived class of Z" implies that Y inherits from Z, making Z the base class, not Y. Therefore, the correct relationship is "Z is a derived class of Y" if the statement were to imply inheritance direction correctly. However, without specific code or context indicating the inheritance direction, the statement as provided suggests Y inherits from Z, not the other way around.
