Which passenger vessel is required to permanently exhibit a fire control plan?

AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) a vessel 500 Gross Tons on an international voyage. According to the regulations, any passenger vessel of 500 Gross Tons or more that is on an international voyage is required to permanently exhibit a fire control plan. This requirement is specified in the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS), which applies to vessels engaged in international voyages. The other options are incorrect because: A) vessels on domestic voyages are not subject to the SOLAS requirement; C) the requirement applies specifically to vessels 500 Gross Tons or more, not all vessels over 500 Gross Tons; and D) there is a specific requirement for vessels 500 Gross Tons or more on international voyages to display a fire control plan.
