Answer:

E). Earth diver and emergence.

Step-by-step explanation:

Creation stories or myths are elaborated as the fanciful stories detailing the earliest origins and creation of the present world we are living in. It describes how the world came into existence and relates the emergence or origin of the world.

As per the question, the given excerpt from the Cherokee creation story "How the World Was Made" carries the two kinds of creation stories 'earth diver and emergence'. 'Earth diver' because it includes a 'buzzard' which is sent by the creator with a responsibility to redeem substances like sand or mud from the depths of seabed to establish a 'terrestrial world'. Emergence as it describes how the progenitors went through a chain of worlds to come to the present world. Thus, option E is the correct answer.
