The terms "ceiling" and "margin plate" are associated with the _______________.

A main deck
B tank top
C engine room
D crew's quarters If choice B is selected set score to 1 1906.
AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) tank top. The terms "ceiling" and "margin plate" are associated with the tank top, which is the structural floor of a ship's cargo hold or tank space. The ceiling refers to the protective wooden or metal sheathing that lines the inside of the tank top, while the margin plate is a reinforcing plate that runs along the perimeter of the tank top to provide additional strength and support. The other answer choices (A, C, and D) are incorrect because the terms "ceiling" and "margin plate" are not typically associated with the main deck, engine room, or crew's quarters.
