    D. The mighty oak is the king of the forest world.

    Explanation:

    Metaphor is a figure of speech which makes an implicit, implied or hidden comparison between two things. A metaphore compares things without using the words "like" or "as".

    D.

    Explanation:

    Options A, B, C are similes. A simile says that one item is like another; that's why a simile uses words "like" or "as". D says simply "the oak is the king"; it is a metaphor.
