Dthe wheelhouse
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) the wheelhouse. Coast Guard regulations require refrigerated spaces that can be locked from the outside and cannot be opened from the inside to have an audible alarm located in the wheelhouse. This is to ensure that the crew in the wheelhouse is immediately alerted if someone becomes trapped in the locked refrigerated space, allowing for a quick response. The other options, such as the galley or a manned location, would not provide the same level of immediate notification to the personnel responsible for the vessel's safe operation.
