Native American stories often depict nature as a C. Spiritual mother. For them, nature is the source of everything they may need in life - food, shade, shelter, etc. It gives them all they crave, which is why they consider it to be a mother of sorts. Nature is very important in Native American culture, so it\s no wonder they value it so much.
For the second question, the correct answer is B. the creation story. Every nation in the world has a story about its creation, and the birth of the world, and Native Americans are no different.
