Question

It was during this period that he might have harkened to the memories of the lair and the stream and run back to the Wild. But the memory of his mother held him. As the hunting man-animals went out and came back, so she would come back to the village some time. So he remained in his bondage waiting for her. Which best describes the force that motivates White Fang’s choice in the excerpt? an internal force based on instinct an internal force based on feeling an external force based on setting an external force based on conflict

Answer 1

Answer:

an external force based on conflict

Explanation:

Here, White Fang thought of escaping into the wild. However, the memory of his mother sending him away when he saw her in the wild, during the famine made him have a second thought. This made White Fang believed that if he could go out and come back, his mother could do the same.

Hence, in this case, the right answer is "an external force based on conflict" because the conflict of losing his mother and thinking that her mother will come back motivates him to stay
