The line from Momaday's the Way to Rainy Mountain that most clearly uses figurative language is the second one:

"And then there is the sudden, piercing call of a bobwhite. The whole world is startled by it."

This sentence doesn't have to be taken literally, of course we know a call can't be piercing nor the whole world can be startled by it. It is a figurative language, which is a figure of speech and there are many types of it such as simile, metaphor and personification to name just a few.

Answer:

B.and then there is the sudden, piercing call of a bobwhite. the whole world is startled by it (45).
