A 10 adult and 1 child
B 11 adult
C 10 adult
D 10 adult and 5 child
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) 10 adult and 1 child. According to the small passenger vessel regulations, the vessel must carry one life jacket for each person on board. Since the vessel is certificated to carry 10 persons, including both adults and children, the required number of life jackets is 10 adult and 1 child. The other options are incorrect because B) 11 adult would be an excess, C) 10 adult would be missing the required child life jacket, and D) 10 adult and 5 child would be an excess of child life jackets.
