B) A giraffe eats leaves off a tree.

C) A bee stings a person who is swatting it away.

D) A kitten gains weight.

E) A butterfly moves pollen from one flower to another.

D) A kitten gains weight

Your answer is D A kitten gains weight because they are similar because there both growing rather in height or weight because there both growing also its not A because that's an characteristic of a octopus is that it can camouflage with the floor and its not similar because it isn't growing in any way its also not B because a giraffe is eating a leaf off a tree is another example of a characteristic because of the giraffes long neck but its not growing in any way again its also not C because when a bee stings you your arm will swell up yes that's growing but it will soon go down and when it came down to rather D, or E I choose D because that's because its a sign of love or characteristic of a butterfly that's it removes pollen from its mate that's why I have chosen C. Your answer is C.
