On an oceangoing vessel, for each person a lifeboat (without desalting kits) is certified to carry, the boat must be supplied with _______________.

AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) 3 liters of water. According to the regulations for oceangoing vessels, each lifeboat (without desalting kits) must be supplied with 3 liters of water per person it is certified to carry. This requirement ensures that there is an adequate supply of drinking water for the passengers and crew in the event of an emergency. The other options are incorrect because they do not match the specific regulatory requirement for the water supply in a lifeboat without desalting kits. Life preservers, signaling whistles, and condensed milk are important survival equipment, but they are not the required water supply per person.
