The question asks for the diagram that shows an enlargement of shape "N" with a scale factor of 2, with the center of enlargement at the cross.

To solve this:
1. **Scale factor of 2** means that every side length of the shape will be doubled.
2. **Center of enlargement at the cross** means that the new shape will expand or contract from that central point.

Let's examine each option:
- In **A**, the shape "N" seems smaller and not scaled properly (it overlaps and doesn't meet the scale factor).
- In **B**, the enlarged shape seems incorrect in size as well, and the position doesn't align with the cross.
- **C** shows a larger shape "N," but it is positioned separately from the original shape.
- **D** shows a correctly enlarged version of "N" that is appropriately doubled in size, with the center of enlargement at the cross, meeting the required conditions.

Therefore, the correct answer is **D**.

Would you like more details, or do you have any questions?

Here are five related questions:
1. How do we calculate the coordinates of points after enlargement?
2. What happens when the scale factor is negative in an enlargement?
3. How can you check if a transformation is an enlargement or another type?
4. How does the distance between the shape and center change with different scale factors?
5. How would this problem change if the center of enlargement was elsewhere?

**Tip**: Always ensure the distances from the center of enlargement to the points of the shape follow the given scale factor.
