D) They were aimed at people who were criticizing President Adams' foreign policy.
Adams was criticized for his neutrality in conflicts between Britain and France as well as how he handled the XYZ Affair. The Alien and Sedition Acts were meant to protect the reputation of the federal government and prevent people with extreme views from entering the country.
The Sedition Act allowed for punishment for those that spoke out against the government. Federalists like John Adams believed negative speech about the government showed weakness of the new government to the world. He believed that the US needed to show support of the government. The Alien Act was put into place to limit the rights of new immigrants entering into the US. Adams was fearful that immigrants would introduce extreme ideas coming out of the French Revolution. The Alien and Sedition Acts were met with fierce resistance and criticism. The critics led by Thomas Jefferson would form the Democratic-Republican Party to counter a growing Federalist power.

Survival of the fittest and Darwin's theory of natural selection are clearly the biggest themes in "The Call of the Wild".
We're set in London following Buck, a dog who from the start is in conflict with his surroundings, with humans, as well as with other dogs. His goal in the story is to overcome these challenges and survive. In a way, Buck must learn to be wilder than his environment in order to stay alive. He senses the harshness and brutality of the world around him looking directly at the consequences anyone that fails to adapt could suffer, in the figure of Curly, a good natured and harmless dog who is being crushed by his inability to overcome these conditions.
This tale is a pefect parallel with Darwin's theories, which propose that each species evolves in a way that enables them to overcome the obstacles presented by their environment in order to survive.
Hope this helps!
