Answer 1

The correct answer is A) create a dissociative web of connotations.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we use an analogy we try to show that two different things are similar. It's similar to an argument. It is meant to demonstrate that two things are alike by pointing out shared characteristics. Now we have to understand what dissociative means: That is something that causes disconnection or separation so we have two different things that are separated. Then we have connotation that means the idea or feeling to understand a word beyond it's primary meaning. With analogies, we create a dissociative web of connotations as we have two different things but they shared some points as if they were on the same web. The analogy expresses a set of like relationships among two sets of term or connotations as well.
