AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) plain whipping. The illustration D030DG shows various knots and the letter "J" is clearly pointing to a plain whipping. A plain whipping is a type of knot used to prevent the end of a rope from unraveling. It is a simple and effective way to secure the end of a rope, which is an essential skill for mariners and Coast Guard personnel. The other answer choices, such as the marline hitch, becket bend, and bowline, are different types of knots with distinct purposes and characteristics, and they are not the knot indicated by the letter "J" in the illustration.
