Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is Option A: All prescribed LSA shall be made of non-combustible or fire retardant material.
LSA is generally required to be fire-resistant; however, the term 'non-combustible' is a strict standard that may not apply to all individual components of every piece of life-saving equipment.
