C his feet were like baby dolphins
c, the use of like is what determines the difference between metaphors and similes
The correct answer is C, "His feet were like baby dolphins," which is an example of a simile as it uses the word 'like' to compare his feet to dolphins. Similes make descriptions more vivid and engaging. Other options do not use 'like' or 'as' for comparisons, making them either metaphors or straightforward statements.
