Answer:

The correct answer is A) Petroglyphs

Step-by-step explanation:

Northwest Coast Art forms are actually generally categorized into two:

A. Petroglyphs: These are very stylish in nature. They are made by creating carvings on rock surfaces. These inscriptions, carving, engravements, or patterns are made using a harder type of rock, or man-made tools like hammerstone, chisel, etc.

B. Pictographs: These are simply paints made on the surface of rocks. The paint used for pictographs is usually red in color.

Cheers!
