Based on the description, what does the ice in the

passage probably look like?

The Yukon was straining to break loose the ice that

bound it down. It ate away from beneath; the sun ate

from above.

-The Call of the Wild,

Jack London

●The ice is being eaten by the starving sled dogs.

●There is a hole in the middle of the ice, like a

doughnut

●The ice looks like it would taste delicious

●The ice has chunks melting away that look as

though they have been bitten off

    The ice in the passage is described thus:

    ●The ice has chunks melting away that look as though they have been bitten off

    Explanation:

    The ice in the passage given here is metaphorically eaten by the Sun from above and its own weight that is binding it down in the Yukon.

    This description is rather metaphorical and we can understand from it that the shape that the ice is in right now can be understood to be looking like it has been taken a bite out of.

    The bite that is described here is taken by the elements that are described here as the sun and the forces inside the earth that gnaw at it.
