Answer:
D) simile
Explanation:
Simile is a figure of speech which compares one thing with another one. It is typically used to make descriptions more emphatic. Simile usually use the word 'like' or 'as' to draw comparison between two things that are been compared.
This sentence is complex because it contains both a dependant and an independent clause. Do not be fooled by the addition of "however" or the length of the sentence.
If you need reasoning, here you are:
Simple: has one independent clause
Compound: has two independent clauses (either joined by a coordinating conjunction or a semicolon)
Complex: contains a dependant and an independent clause
Compound-Complex: Contains at least two independent clauses and one dependent clause
Hope this helps! If you have any questions about what any of the words that I used in my explanation mean (such as an independent clause and a dependent clause), feel free to ask.
