A metaphor is defined as a figure of speech where a word or phrase is applied to an object or an action to which is it not literally applicable. It compares the objects without using the word 'like' or 'as' (that would be a simile). So for this question, the answer would be D. The mighty oak is the king of the forest world. The other three answers are examples of similes.

Superiority Theory is when you laugh at someone else’s expense. You are making fun of them because you feel superior to them.
Release Theory is you laugh to release nervous energy.
Incongruity Theory is a joke that a comedian would use. “The most common kind of joke is that in which we expect one thing and another is said; here our own disappointed expectation makes us laugh.”
