A
creationism
B
steady state theory
C
creation myths
D
oscillating universe theory
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The Oscillating Universe Theory is a cosmological model that combines both the Big Bang and the Big Crunch as part of a cyclical event. That is, if this theory holds true, then the Universe in which we live in exists between a Big Bang and a Big Crunch.

Detailed explanation-2: -A theory called “Big Bounce” proposes that the universe could collapse to the state where it began and then initiate another Big Bang, so in this way, the universe would last forever but would pass through phases of expansion (Big Bang) and contraction (Big Crunch).

Detailed explanation-3: -A modification of the Big Bang theory, in which an expanding universe eventually reverses and collapses back to a Big Crunch before starting to expand again, forming one cycle of an endless series. In such a model, each cycle has a finite duration but the universe itself can last for an infinite time.
