Answer:

B. Night.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Iroquois creation myth "The World On The Turtle's Back" delves into the creation of the earth and how everything was a result of the birth of two boys. The oral legend also went further to suggest that man's nature is also a part of this creation story.

After the death of their mother, the twin boys frequently fought. One such dispute became so extreme that they decided to stay far apart from each other. This resulted in Little Sprout choosing to dwell in the day while his brother Flint choose the night.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.
