Correct Answer: her mother’s


Solution : The second option is the correct choice.

The possessive form "her mother’s" is grammatically correct in this context, as it appropriately indicates the possession and helps clarify that the similarity is with her mother's smile.

Therefore, the correct sentence would be: Her smile is similar to her mother’s .
