Answer:
They obeyed the call of the conch for they assume Ralph to be a link with the adult world and also for the entertainment it provides whenever any meetings are held.
Explanation:
The book<em> </em><em>Lord of the Flies</em> by William Golding tells the story of stranded children in a deserted island. These groups of British schoolboys were being evacuated from the war when their plane crashed, leaving them to try to survive in the wild.
The<em> "littluns''</em> were a group of the younger boys who were still too young to be left alone. They were about the age group of six years, with not much to do or be tasked to do. While the older boys tried to group the tasks and find ways to survive, these groups of <em>"littluns" </em>were just left to do whatever they wanted.
Chapter 4 directly states why they obey the call of the <em>"conch"</em>, the symbol of leadership. <em>"They obeyed the summons of the conch, partly because Ralph blew it, and he was big enough to be a link with the adult world of authority; and partly because they enjoyed the entertainment of the assemblies</em>".

Jacks Agueros's “'Agua Viva,' A Sculpture by Alfred Gonzalez" tells the story of Filthy Fredo, a hermit that collects scrap iron to build creations in his workshop. Filthy Fredo, is mentally unstable, hasn't shave or take a bath in five years, and the only human interaction that he had during the story is with some neighborhood boys which resulted to be violent at first glance. The author uses iron as a metaphor to Fredo's obsessive world, which is impenetrable as the iron creations that he builds for defense against the real world. One excerpt of the story that implies this conclusion is "His house had become the lair of the iron woodchuck, the hive of the iron bee, the storeroom of the iron squirrel, the complex of chambers of the iron ant". The iron served as the metaphoric armor of Fredo, and the only thing he enjoyed to do as a hermit. However, he eventually had to deal with the consequences of the life he decided to live and his inevitable return to society.
