Answer:

C) God uses the rainbow as a sign of his promise never again to destroy all life on Earth.

Explanation:

In the Bible, man's wickedness made god so angry that He asked Noah to build an ark and save animals in pairs and also his family. The rest of mankind and life was wiped out from the face of the earth by the flood that lasted 40 days, bringing the earth to it's pre-creation condition. After the rains, God put a rainbow in the sky as a mark of his covenant with Noah, promising not to annihilate life from the earth ever again.
