    D) like the Asian carp that are threatening to invade Lake Michigan, but far larger, more vicious, and mounted on four legs.

    Explanation:

    Option D is correct because it is giving the comparison by using the word like at the beginning unlike the options A and E which are using the word such as (used when giving example).
