Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The words' sounds try to directly recreate the noise that they

describe.

Onomatopoeia = creating a word that phonetically imitates, resembles, or suggests the sound that it describes

^ words for animal sounds imitate the sounds they actually make, so the answer is B!

Hope this helped.
