D. Personification. Personification is where a nonhuman object is given human qualities in literature. A boat can't actually "resist", "answer", or "mount" something, however a human can. These are all examples of why this is personification. 

Answer:

D) personification

Personification is the correct answer. The boat cannot literally answer as a person would.
