A
Morocco
B
Peru
C

D
Saudi Arabia
AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) Peru. The IALA-B Buoyage System is the standard used for marking navigational channels and waterways in countries that follow the International Association of Marine Aids to Navigation and Lighthouse Authorities (IALA) Region B standards. Peru, located in South America, is one of the countries that uses the IALA-B Buoyage System to mark its channels and waterways. The other answer choices, Morocco, Poland, and Saudi Arabia, are not located in IALA Region B and would not be expected to use the IALA-B Buoyage System. They would likely use the IALA-A Buoyage System or other national or regional marking systems.
