The correct answer is D. The cow stood in udder amazement when she was unable to produce milk.
Explanation:
In language, a pun or paronomasia refers to a statement that uses play on words to create humor or entertain. Because of this, it is common puns use words with more than one meaning (homographic), words that sound similar (homophonic) or figurative language to create amusing but clever statements. Considering this, the sentence that is an example of a pun is "The cow stood in udder amazement when she was unable to produce milk" because the word "udder" (organ of cows in which the milk is produced) sounds similar to the word "utter" ( complete or total). This means this statement uses homophobic to create an amusing statement and therefore is a pun or paronomasia.
