The best option seems to be the second one, letter B) This concept is mentioned throughout the book.

The book The Call of the Wild, by Jack London, has as its theme the concept of "survival of the fittest". Survival of the fittest is an expression connected to Charles Darwin's theory of evolution. Organisms which are able to adapt to the environment survive. Those which are not end up extinct.

That is precisely what happens in the story by London. The main character is a dog, Buck. Buck is stolen from a family with whom he lived a comfortable life. He has to adapt to a whole new environment and conditions as a sled-dog. He turns out to be so adaptable that he becomes the leader of a pack of wolves by the end of the story.

What is the difference between renaissance and the reformation
Liula [17]

Answer:

Renaissance is mostly a cultural movement, while reformation is a movement inside the Catholic church.

Explanation:

  • The Reformation was the name for religious movements against the papacy and the Catholic Church in the 16th century. From these movements new religious communities emerged, independent of the papacy.
  • The most important initiators of the Reformation were Martin Luther in Germany, Zwingli and Calvin in Switzerland.
  • Supporters of the Reformation separated from the Catholic Church, proclaimed Scripture as the sole source of faith and spread their teaching in Germany, Switzerland, the Netherlands, England and the Scandinavian countries.
  • The Renaissance marks the period when art, culture and intellectual endeavors turned to the classical art and teachings of Greece and Rome.
  • The past so revived, in which Renaissance artists and scholars found inspiration to develop and explore new ideas and practices, influenced all arts and sciences.

Which lines in this excerpt from "The Raven" by Edgar Allan Poe use allusion?
mihalych1998 [28]

<u>Answer</u>:

  • "Get thee back into the tempest and the Night's Plutonian shore!
  • On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;

An allusion is a reference to an object or a circumstance from an unrelated context. This reference tends to be done indirectly, and usually without explanation, so that the reader can make the connection by himself. In this case, the "Plutonian shore" refers to the afterlife (guarded by Pluto), while the bust of Pallas refers to the goddess of wisdom, Athena.
