AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) A Navy Destroyer. Annex V of MARPOL 73/78 (the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships) applies to all ships, with a few exceptions.

The other options (A, B, and D) are all civilian vessels and would be subject to the Annex V requirements for the disposal of garbage at sea.
