Answer:

c. consonance

Step-by-step explanation:

We name alliteration when the words begin with the same consonant sound, which is not the case. Assonance happens when the sounds of words/syllables are alike between their vowels (bean, meat). And rhyme is the uniformity of sounds at the termination of two or more words. In this case, we actually have Consonance, which is a stylistic literary device in which occurs the repetition of identical or similar consonants in words that are close to each other and most likely have different vowel sounds. "heat/cut/apart/it/to/tatter" is a whole lot of "T" sounds.
