Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is Option B: Sound the ship's emergency alarm.
The ship's emergency alarm is the universal signal to notify the crew of a critical situation. It ensures that everyone is alerted immediately, allowing for a structured response and muster rather than disjointed, individual efforts.
