D
to make small creatures expand they are when placed in water

Explanation

Anhydrous compounds contain no water in their structure, so some can take up water when placed in it. In toy products, this can make small toy creatures expand as they absorb water. The correct choice is “to make small creatures expand when they are placed in water.”
