AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) one - 90 foot segment. A shot of anchor chain is equal to 90 feet or one - 90 foot segment. This is the standard length of an anchor chain segment, as defined by maritime regulations and conventions. The other options are incorrect - 90 fathoms is too long, one 15-foot segment is too short, and a single chain link is much smaller than a full shot of chain.
