Which graph shows a dilation?

A
Image with description On a coordinate plane, the x and y axes range from negative 4 to positive 4 in increments of 1. 2 triangles are shown. The vertices of the smaller triangle are (negative 1 comma 0), (negative 1 comma 1), and (2 comma 0), and the vertices of the larger triangle are (negative 2 comma 0), (negative 2 comma 3), and (4 comma 0).
B
Image with description On a coordinate plane, the x and y axes range from negative 4 to positive 4 in increments of 1. 2 triangles are shown. The vertices of the smaller triangle are (negative 2 coma 0), (negative 2 comma 2), and (1 comma 0), and the vertices of the larger triangle are (negative 3 comma 0), (negative 3 comma 4), and (2 comma 0).
C
Image with description On a coordinate plane, the x and y axes range from negative 4 to positive 4 in increments of 1. 2 triangles are shown. The vertices of the smaller triangle are (negative 2 comma 0), (negative 2 comma 1), and (0 comma 0), and the vertices of the larger triangle are (negative 3 comma 0), (negative 3 comma 4), and (2 comma 0).
D
