70% to passAs seen in illustration D035SA below, when the remote push button located in the wheelhouse, starboard side, frame 122, is actuated, what is the result?
A
CO2 or Halon extinguishing systems will be energized
B
The general alarm will sound the fire and emergency signal
C
Ventilation ducts are secured
D

AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) Ventilation ducts are secured. When the remote push button located in the wheelhouse, starboard side, frame 122 is actuated, it triggers the closure of the ventilation ducts. This is a standard safety feature in fire detection and suppression systems on ships, as it helps prevent the spread of smoke and fire by shutting down the ventilation. The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the function of this particular remote push button.
