Detailed explanation-1: -Answer: Metaphor. Explanation: “Her long hair is an ocean of waves” is a metaphor.
Detailed explanation-2: -A metaphor compares two different things, similar to a simile. The main difference between a simile and a metaphor is that metaphors do not use the words “like” or “as.” Unlike similes, metaphors don’t acknowledge that they’re comparisons.
Detailed explanation-3: -Simile: A wave from the ocean rose up like an arm, reaching to the shore. Metaphor: The ocean lifted its arm to touch the shore. Implied comparison: A wave from the ocean rose up before it crashed down on the shore, and looked like an arm.
