b. None of the above

In the given options, none of them specifically describe the diver doing work in a physical sense. Work in a physics context is defined as a force acting on an object to cause displacement.

A: When diver is climbing ladder

The only other option that sounds like it may be right is the falling one but if you are falling you dont have to do anything, gravity is doing the work for you.
