============================

<em>A writer writes puns for humor or levity.</em>

While often time un-funny, puns are used to add humor or a lighter tone/mood to the story.

=============================

The option that describes a homophonic pun is<em> a pun that uses two words that look the same but have different meanings </em>

The word homophonic is based/comes from music, by music I mean the way some notes may look the same but sound different.

=============================

Hope this helps, have a amazing day!~
