A 42
B 47
C 48
D 50
AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) 48. The symbol 48 represents the dry chemical releasing station on fire control plans according to the relevant regulation, NFPA 170 Standard for Fire Safety and Emergency Symbols. This standard specifies the symbols used to designate various fire protection equipment and features on diagrams and drawings, including fire control plans. The other answer choices are incorrect because 42 represents a fire extinguisher, 47 represents a fire alarm pull station, and 50 does not correspond to any standard symbol for a dry chemical releasing station.
