The correct answer is “Pike disobeyed by refusing to wake up and caused Spitz to punish him.”

In the “Call of the Wild”, Pike’s insubordination in shirking his duties precipitated discipline from Spitz. This means that Pike disobeyed by refusing to wake up and caused Spitz to punish him.

“The Call of the Wild” is a novel written by American writer John London in 1903. London (1876-1916) is a well-known novelist because of two important novels of adventures, “The Call of the Wild” and “Martin Eden”, and “White Fang”. “The Call of The Wild,” tells the story of Buck, the main dog and its relationships with other dogs, representing the relationships in human’s society.
