The excerpt demonstrates that Buck is learning to C. adapt.

Explanation:

"The Call of the Wild" is a novel by Jack London. Buck, the main character, is a dog that's stolen and sold to become a sleigh dog in Canada's territory of Yukon. The theme that permeates the novel is the survival of the fittest. Only those who are strong and capable of adapting themselves to the environment and new conditions survive. Buck goes from being a dog living a comfortable life to a semi-wild dog leading a pack of wolves. The reason behind his success is his physical strength and his adaptability. Buck learns fast. In the excerpt, he learns not to try and attack a man holding a club, for the man will use the club to beat him. Such lessons allow Buck to stay alive and to thrive even in dire circumstances.
