Answer:

D.Parallel to the base

Step-by-step explanation:

For the figures , the cake is cut into two parts with a cross-section parallel to the base. because there is new bases turned and the new base is similar to the original base.

The vertex point is whole without changes .

hence D is correct

{the new base are similar to the original base}
