Question 1436 Deck Safety

The correct answer is D) Prior to abandonment, the immersion suit allows body movement such as walking, climbing a ladder and picking up small objects. This is correct because immersion suits are designed to provide thermal protection and mobility for the wearer in the event of abandoning a vessel. The suit allows for basic physical functions and dexterity to enable the wearer to move around and take necessary actions before entering the water. The other answer choices are incorrect - immersion suits do not seal in body heat for weeks, severely restrict the wearer's movement, or provide protection against fire and burning oil. The suits are designed for thermal protection and mobility, not long-term survival or fire resistance.
