B 37, 36, 46, 47
C 37, 35, 36, 45
D 38, 47
AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) 37, 35, 36, 45. To provide water to the main deck from the sea using the starboard #2 ballast pump on the DEEP DRILLER, the valves that need to be opened are 37, 35, 36, and 45. This sequence allows the water to be drawn from the sea, pass through the ballast pump, and be delivered to the main deck. The other answer options are incorrect because: A) and B) do not include the necessary valve 35 in the sequence. D) is missing several valves required to complete the full flow path.
