AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) all of the above. Kapok life jackets require proper care and should not be used as seats, pillows, or foot rests, left on open decks, or stowed near open flame or where smoking is permitted. This is because kapok life jackets are vulnerable to damage from compression, direct sunlight, and heat, which can compromise their buoyancy and effectiveness in an emergency. Proper storage and handling is essential to ensure kapok life jackets remain in good condition and function as intended when needed.
