Answer:

The literary device used is a metaphor.

Explanation:

A metaphor is a literary device that is used for comparison. This means that when a comparison is made between two unrelated things and their meanings cannot be taken literally, it is a metaphor.

In the given dialogue of Dr. House, a metaphor is used when the comparison is made between them (House and Wilson) and birds. House compares them to <em>"an early bird . . .and a night owl."</em> This comparison is used in the metaphorical sense.

Thus, the correct answer is a metaphor.

The idea of controlling humans through biological engineering is an example of.... context with an extreme form of state control
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

B. a dystopian

B. it depends on technology to create the world.

The idea of controlling humans through biological engineering is a dystopian view of the future. "Dystopia" is the opposite of "utopia" and it refers to a society in which things are a lot worse than in ours. Most of the time, it refers to a future authoritarian and cruel society. This belongs to the genre of science fiction because in order to become real, technology would have to be developed further. However, most of the time these scenarios are not completely impossible, and therefore, often serve as a cautionary tale for the present.
