23. The slogan "Butterkist bakes better biscuits" best exemplifies<br>​
Ugo [173]

Answer:

<em>Personification</em>

Explanation:

<em>Personification</em> is a figure of speech where we give human characteristics to inanimate objects.

In the given example we have Butterkist which is a famous British company that produces, among other food, biscuits. The sentence gives us an impression like Butterkist is a real person, a cook, who cooks those biscuits, so in a way, we <em>gave life</em> to the company and that represents personification.
