A
Whistle and bell only
B
Whistle, bell, and gong
C
Whistle only
D
Bell only
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) Whistle and bell only. According to the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGS) and the Inland Navigation Rules, a vessel 20 meters in length or more is required to be equipped with a whistle and a bell to generate fog signals. The regulations do not mandate the use of a gong for vessels of this size, which makes answer B incorrect. Answers C and D are also incorrect, as both a whistle and a bell are required for a vessel of this length.
