Answer:

A; Dilation

Explanation:

Here, we want to select which of the options represent the process of making a favorite cartoon character bigger.

Mathematically, the answer here is dilation. In mathematical terms, if we want to enlarge a particular figure or entity, we have to dilate its dimensions by a particular factor.

This simply means we multiply its original measurement by a constant factor to ensure that we have a multiple or scaled up figure of the smaller version.
