Answer:

D) Poe describes the relationship between man and animal as that of companions, while London describes the relationship between man and animal as that of companions, but also as coworkers. London

even suggests dogs rule.

Step-by-step explanation:

The above option is the correct answer.

In The Black Cat by Edgar Poe, an alcoholic maltreats and kills his cat, Pluto. After that, he sees a stray cat that resembles exactly like the cat that he murdered. The only difference is the mark on his chest. He follows the man home and actually drives him more insane.

In The Call Of The Wild by Jack London, Buck, a sled dog is seen being of tremendous benefit to his fourth master, Thornton. They were bonded in daily activities. London shows that man and animals are companions and also coworkers. He also suggests that dogs rule. This is seen in the way Buck assisted his master, Thornton. When Thornton was killed, Buck got angry and killed several Yeehats. He still returns to mourn the loss of his master each year.

The both authors describes the relationship between man and animal as that of companions. But London goes further to suggest that they man and animals are also coworkers.
