Floors aboard ship are _______________.

AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) frames to which the tank top and bottom shell are fastened on a double bottomed ship. Floors aboard ship refer to the transverse structural members in the bottom of a double-bottomed ship, to which the tank top and bottom shell are fastened. They provide the foundation and structural support for the ship's bottom.
