AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) whistle, light and retro-reflective material. Immersion suits are required to be equipped with these items per the U.S. Coast Guard regulations. The whistle and light are necessary for signaling and attracting rescue, while the retro-reflective material improves visibility of the wearer in the water. The other options, such as an air bottle, orange smoke canister, or sea dye marker, are not required components of an immersion suit.
