An analogy is a literary device that compares two things that are completely different using something that is familiar, in this case, saw and scissors are completely different things but the analogy they use al connecting it with a person helps the reader understand that the two objects have a common quality, they both are tools.

Answer 2

A function and the associated person

Step-by-step explanation:

The analogy provides a relationship between a function (something used for something) and the associated person to that tool, that is to say, the specialized person that uses the tool.
