The use of the word crown is a good deployment of synedoche. Synedoche is when a part of something represents the whole. Crown here refers to the throne, which is the whole. The question was talking about the crown and not what the hyena said.

cannot be personification because hyena does not count as inanimate object rather it is animate, it has life and can move at will. so the chosen option is wrong

The correct answer is D please dont you know that animals are living things haba. The crown there can be authority or leadership.

crown is quoted which means emphasis should be made on it.meanwhile according to the context i feel imagery should be the answer because crown in the excerpt symbolizes the throne

the correct answer is synecdoche because the question says "crown" and not the hyena

@MySchool I sincerely appreciate y'all giving us what you think is the answer, but I totally disagree. Imma go with (D)

The right answer should be D. You chose C. Choosing C is wrong because personification focused on "hyena" not "crown".

I feel the answer should be synedoche because they are talking about the 'crown' alone. They want us to identify what the crown signifies, and since metonymy is not among the options, then it should be synedoch, since the crown is part of the things that come with the throne.
