Analogy compares two things directly and do not use the words "like" or "as"

Only Metaphor uses "like" or "as"

Hyperbole is like an exaggeration.

Answer: C. Metaphors.

Explanation: a metaphor is a direct comparison between elements that aren't obviously related, it doesn't use the words "like" or "as" to make the comparison, and it is used to create an mental image in the readers or audience, for example: she thinks life is a fashion show. Similes and analogies are also comparisons, but similes use the words "like" or "as" for example: life is like a fashion show, and analogies only compare specific characteristics of two or more elements for example: this movie is a rollercoaster of emotions.
