Aare seated with seatbelts on and doors shut
Bare seated with seatbelts on and doors open
Care to shift to one side to right it
Descape from the craft
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) are seated with seatbelts on and doors shut. A self-righting survival craft is designed to automatically return to an upright position if it capsizes, provided that all personnel remain securely seated with seatbelts fastened and the craft's doors or hatches are closed. This allows the craft's righting mechanism to work as intended without interference from the occupants. The other options are incorrect because having the doors open (B), shifting to one side (C), or escaping the craft (D) would interfere with the self-righting capability and prevent the craft from returning to an upright position.
