Answer:

Metaphor

Explanation:

A metaphor is a figure of speech that compares two things by saying the first thing is the second thing. Greta is obviously not actually a fish but she swims like one so the author used a metaphor.

WHY THE OTHER ANSWERS DO NOT WORK:

A pun is a joke exploiting the different possible meanings of a word. There is no joke being made here so the sentence is not a pun.

Personification is a form of metaphor in that human characteristics are attributed to nonhuman things. Greta is a human so this sentence is not an example of personification.

A simile is a figure of speech that compares two things using the terms "like" or "as". Neither of those phrases were used, so this sentence is not a simile.

The only option left is metaphor. :)

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

Easy

Explanation:

The one universal thing that makes people the same is that we all originated in modern day Africa, meaning we are all African. Which means there is no white and black, no lower and no higher. So, everyone is basically the same person here. Even though we have different faces, colors, backgrounds that all doesn't contribute to our distinctive homes. You can't call someone African just because they look brown or black you can call someone African because they were born with you in modern day Africa.
