Read the passage. Perhaps the eye of a scrutinizing observer might have discovered a barely perceptible fissure, which extending from the roof of the building in front, made its way down the wall in a zigzag direction, until it became lost in the sullen waters of the tarn. How does the description of the house hint at the ending of Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Fall of the House of Usher”?

a. the observor is the narator
b. the masonry is broken and decayed
c.the water refernce idndicates that death will come via water
d. the crack indicates the house is vulnerable to collapse

Answer:

d. the crack indicates the house is vulnerable to collapse.

Step-by-step explanation:

The House of Usher was claimed by Usher individuals for ages and "the disintegrating state of the individual stones" speaks to every relative and foretells that the house will crumple. Toward the finish of the story, a tempest wins and Roderick turns out to be anxious, again portending that the house would soon collapse.
