wood bc it’s less dense than water therefore it floats making it the most buoyant out of the answer choices

Wood has a lower density than water, and thus the upward buoyant force provided by the water is equal to the weight of the wood submerged.

Penny has a smaller density

I would say wood would be ur best option.
