When all was water, the animals were above in Galùn'lati, beyond the arch; but it was very crowded, and they wanted more room. They wondered what was below the water, and at last Beaver's Grandchild, the little Water-beetle, offered to go and see if he could learn. He
darted in every direction over the surface of the water, but could find no firm place to rest. Then he dived to the bottom and came up with
some soft mud, which began to grow and spread on every side until it became the Island that we call Earth. It was afterward fastened to the
sky with four cords, but no one remembers who did this.
At first Earth was flat and very soft and wet. The animals were anxious to get down, and set out different birds to see if it was yet dry, but
they found no place to alight and came back again to Galūn'lati. At last it seemed to be time, and they sent out the Buzzard and told him to
go and make ready for them...
When Earth was dry and the animals came down, it was still dark, so they got the sun and set it in a track to go every day across the island
from east to west, just overhead...

The correct answer is E. Earth diver and emergence

Explanation:

Creation stories are part of the tradition of many communities as they explain the origin of the world, humans, and other elements. Additionally, creation stories can be of different types depending on their features.

In the case of Earth diver stories, these include a character such as an animal that is sent to find sand or similar material in the water and this material is later the base for land. This occurs in the passage presented because the Beaver's Grandchild "dived to the bottom and came up with  some soft mud" and later the mud spread and formed land.

On the other hand, in emergence stories living beings, gods, and other elements emerge spontaneously or through a process, or metamorphosis. This feature can be seen in "At first Earth was flat and very soft and wet...When Earth was dry and the animals came down... it was still dark, so they got the sun" because different elements such as the Earth and the sun emerge spontaneously; also, in the case of the Earth, this transforms or suffers a metamorphosis.
