Answer:

D. the insignificance of man in nature

Explanation:

In the description from "The Red Badge of Courage," the author Stephen Crane makes reference to the smallness of man in nature. In that respect, he mentions that the man is not able to pacify or appease the forest as he walks through it. In fact, every time he moves away branches of trees and vines, they move back and forth as if they were in discontent.
