Question 225Safety & Environmental - 1st Asst/Chief

The correct answer is C) whistle, strobe light, and reflective tape. An immersion suit is designed to protect the wearer from hypothermia in cold water. The required equipment for an immersion suit includes a whistle to signal for help, a strobe light to increase visibility, and reflective tape to aid in search and rescue operations. These features are mandated by U.S. Coast Guard regulations to enhance the survivability of the wearer in the event of an emergency. The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the required equipment for an immersion suit. Option A is incorrect as immersion suits do not typically have built-in air bottles for breathing. Option B is incorrect as it lacks the strobe light and reflective tape. Option D is incorrect as it includes a sea dye marker, which is not a required component of an immersion suit.
