Yes, the words "hum" and "ham" are examples of onomatopoeia. Onomatopoeia is a sound device wherein words imitate or resemble the sounds associated with the objects or actions they refer to. In this case, the words "hum" and "ham" imitate the sounds of humming and the sound of chewing on ham. To determine the answer to this question, you could identify the sound being represented by the words and match it to the correct sound device. In this case, the word "hum" represents the sound of humming, and "ham" represents the sound of chewing, making onomatopoeia the appropriate choice (Option A).
