The image below shows the sign for one particular day in the Aztec calendar. Use the image to answer the following question:

The day sign is a small iconic illustration of the head of a creature, perhaps mythical, looking something like a bird and something like a reptile. In profile, the creature stares at the viewer with a large eye in white, red, and green, and sticks out a red tongue. Its headdress, or head feathers, are striped brown and white. Public Domain
What inference about the Mesoamerican view of time can be made on the basis of the sign?
For Mesoamericans, time was a frightening creation connected to death.
Each Mesoamerican day was represented by a number.
For Mesoamericans, each day in the calendar had a distinct identity. Each day in the Mesoamerican system was named after a god.
