The answer is A, Noun. The word "day" is a noun. Also, a little tip, just look up the word and along with the definition of it will be the part of speech it belongs to. Good luck!

Answer: A) Noun.

Step-by-step explanation: To be able to identify the different parts of the speech, we need to know their definitions, a noun is a word that is a name, it can be the name of a place, a person or an object. A verb is a word that expresses an action, an adjective is a word that modifies a noun and an adverb usually modifies a verb, an adjective or other adverbs. In the given sentence, the word "day" represents a noun.
