BThe chamber that processes the outside air contains the cooling coil and is known as the humidification chamber. The chamber that processes the cargo-hold air contains the heating coil and is known as the regeneration chamber.
CThe chamber that processes the cargo-hold air contains the heating coil and is known as the humidification chamber. The chamber that processes the outside air contains the cooling coil and is known as the regeneration chamber.
DThe chamber that processes the cargo-hold air contains the cooling coil and is known as the regeneration chamber. The chamber that processes the outside air contains the heating coil and is known as the humidification chamber.
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A. The key points are: 1) The chamber that processes the cargo-hold air contains the cooling coil and is known as the humidification chamber. 2) The chamber that processes the outside air contains the heating coil and is known as the regeneration chamber. This is because the humidification chamber cools and dehumidifies the air from the cargo hold, while the regeneration chamber heats and dries the air from outside that is used to remove moisture from the humidification chamber. The other options are incorrect because they describe the components and functions of the chambers in the opposite way.
