<u>Explanation:</u>
The term node in this context basically refers to a series or groups of points in a graph, phrase markers, or a tree.
It is noteworthy that two or more nodes are referred to as daughters of another node in P-marker when if and only if the nodes in consideration (eg T, Q, R) are immediately dominated by another (M), which is called the mother node.
Answer:
I'm not sure if this is a multiple choice question but the answer is " It compares two unlike things that have more than one thing in common"
Explanation:
In an analogy, the writer takes two different things and makes a connection with it. In order to make a connection, we should first find the similarity between the 2 different things. I'm not if this is okay but on this website it said that "In an analogy, you yoke together two unlike things (eye and camera, the task of navigating a spacecraft and the task of sinking a putt), and all you care about is their major similarities. The most effective analogies are usually brief and to the point—developed in just a few sentences."
The answer is a simile. This is because similes compare two things (these things here are his life and the dusty yards) by using like or as (specifically here as).
The other ones don't make sense: nothing is being over exaggerated (hyperbole), there are no repeating consonants (alliteration), and there are no human characteristics being given to inhuman subjects (personification).
The correct answer is C. Hope this helps, good luck!
