The correct answer is similes

Simile is defined as that which resembles, is analogous or similar. That is, it refers to the comparison of two distinct objects, but which have common characteristics that bring them together, by similarity.

In the context of language, the simile is considered the figure of explicit comparison - since there are other types that compare too, such as metaphor and analogy, for example.

However, the simile presents itself as a more objective resource, and for that, what characterizes it and differs it from the others is the use of connectors to highlight the comparison that is being made.
