Alliteration - similar letters or sounds at the beginning of a word in a sentence(s)

Metaphor - a comparison that does not use 'like' or 'as'

Simile - a comparison USING 'like' or 'as'

Personification - giving human qualities to inanimate things

Onomatopoeia - referred to as extreme exaggeration.

Alliteration - Contains the same letter or sound at the beginning  of each word.

Example: Big brown bear bought books.

Metaphor - Similarities between objects WITHOUT using like or as.

Example: You are my sunshine.

Simile - A comparison between two things using like or as.

Example: He is as lazy as a cat.

Personification - Giving objects human characteristics.

Example: The flowers danced in the wind.

Onomatopoeia - Words that sound like you say them.

Example: The thunder went BOOM.

Hope this Helps!!

Read this excerpt from "Mad Cow, Furious Farmer."
pshichka [43]

I believe the correct answer is: D. The author humanizes the prion with playful language by saying "[i]f it manages to burrow into a corner."

 

In this excerpt from "Mad Cow, Furious Farmer”, the example in which the author keepings a lively tone even while discussing a disease is:

"[i]f it manages to burrow into a corner."

 

As opposed to the terminology author uses (such as: bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE)), the informal language of more commonly understandable comparison gives the lively tone to this excerpt, even though he is addressing the serious disease. Other example of this would be: "a little bit squishy and maybe a little bit sticky".
