D) None of the above...
(Genises 1:25) God created Dinosaur
(Genises 7) God made a flood. Took two of each unclean beast, and seven of the clean beast. The ones left on the earth to bare the flood? Many would have been covered with tons of mud as the rampaging water covered the land. Because of this quick burial, many of the animals would have been preserved as fossils. If this happened, you would expect to find evidence of billions of dead things buried in rock layers (formed from this mud) all over the Earth. This is exactly what you do find.
(Job 40:15-24) Mentions the animal Behemoth. As described as a dinosaur.
The word dinosaur was created in the 1800s, so they bible might refer in some instances to them as dragons.
At the time of the Flood, many of the sea creatures died, but some survived. In addition, all of the land creatures outside the Ark died, but the representatives of all the kinds that survived on the Ark lived in the new world after the Flood. Those land animals (including dinosaurs) found the new world to be much different than the one before the Flood. Due to (1) competition for food that was no longer in abundance, (2) other catastrophes, (3) man killing for food and (4) the destruction of habitats, etc., many species of animals eventually died out, not just dinosaurs. In fact, quite a number of animals become extinct each year. Extinction seems to be the rule in Earth history (not the formation of new types of animals as you would expect from evolution).

D) a Christian personification of the evils of the world. Satan was never mentioned by Jesus. He was mentioned in Job, but cooperated with God, as if he was one of His servants, contrary to the modern idea of Satan being God's archenemy of sorts. Satan is real, but didn't do anything with fossils or dinosaurs (that doesn't have any effect on our future anyways), and probably isn't a real being, but just evil in general.

God created all. Man was made mortal just like the animals before him (explains fossil record and that death was on planet before man's sin) but was separated from them by God's making us in His image which means we can communicate, create, reason, will and love. Man was to GAIN immortality through eating of the Tree of Life which is symoblic of obeying God's express commands. But man and woman ate of the Tree of Knowledge and thus usurped God's authority over them to decide what is good or bad or right versus wrong. Immortality was barred from man because God is moral and holy and He was looking forward to that day when He would come down to earth and take our punishment upon Himself so we could live with Him forever like it was meant to be. Satan seeks to kill, steal and destroy man because we are the crowning act of creation. As a Geologist, I believe that evolution of some species or adaptability is nothing more than God's process of creating. I don't believe all was made in 6 days, 6,000 years ago, but over millions and indeed billions of years.

Sorry.. I can't select any of the three. Satan was a book character and isn't a real guy.
Go ahead and test that... It's quite safe. I've done it. Call on Satan, the opportunist, and see if you get a response -- "He" won't answer because he's as non-existing as God. But that's not a big surprise to anyone, is it?
