AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) Buckle tensioner. Buckle tensioners are commonly used with webbing to secure light vehicles aboard Ro-Ro (roll-on/roll-off) vessels. These devices allow the webbing to be tightened and secured quickly and easily, providing a reliable means of restraining vehicles during transit. The other options are not the primary tensioning devices used for this purpose. Chain levers and turnbuckles are more commonly used for heavier cargo, while the "Adjust-a-matic" tensioner is not a standard term in this context.
