AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) Inspection tanks provide for a visual examination of condensate which could be oil contaminated. This is correct because inspection tanks are designed to allow for a visual inspection of condensate from various sources, including cargo tank heating coils. This allows the crew to check for any potential oil or contaminant buildup in the condensate, which could indicate a problem with the heating coils or other equipment. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the purpose and function of inspection tanks on vessels.
