AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) 3, 34, 35, 36, 46, and 48.
The reasoning is that to deballast from the forward-starboard column using starboard pump #2, you need to open the valves that connect that column to the pump. The valves listed in option A are the ones that need to be opened to allow the deballasting process to occur.
