Which is an example of metaphor?

Merry, our parakeet, whistles like a teakettle every time the doorbell rings.
The ocean’s waves swallowed up loose pieces of driftwood along the beach.
Father’s mustache was a furry caterpillar wiggling beneath his nose.
The school bus was as noisy and crowded as a football stadium.

Answer:

Father’s mustache was a furry caterpillar wiggling beneath his nose.

Step-by-step explanation:

Metaphors compared two separate things WITHOUT using like or as

Similes compare two separate things WITH like or as

Hope this helps! Have a great day :)
