The correct answer is C.

Imagery appeals to the senses so that the reader can clearly imagine it in his or her mind. Imagery appeals to one of the five senses: a bright blue house (visual imagery); the clanging of pots and pans (sound); a velvety soft dress (touch); the bitter, sour juice of a lemon (taste); and the sweet fragrance of a rose (smell).

On the other hand, a metaphor is a comparison; personification is giving human traits to objects; and apostrophe is speaking to an object like a person. Only imagery appeals to the senses and creates an impression on the reader, making the correct answer C.
