The correct answer is to show that Captain Ahab is the only real decision maker on the ship.  He is the one who decides on all the important issues and makes others follow him in his mad pursuit of The Whale. Other crew members are expected to blindly follow him and obey his rules.

What is the symbolic significance of the light in Crooks's room
Furkat [3]

Answer:

The light in CROOKS' room is "meagre". This suggests the lack of happiness and hope CROOKS holds - represented through his room's dismal (dark) description. This shows that the light tries to get input never manages to penetrate the darkness.
