An orange and white buoy marking an area where operating restrictions are in effect will be marked with which symbol?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) Circle.
An orange and white buoy marking an area where operating restrictions are in effect will be marked with a circle symbol. This is in accordance with the United States Aids to Navigation System, which specifies that a circle symbol is used to indicate a controlled or restricted area.
The other answer choices are incorrect because they represent different buoy symbols that are used for different purposes - an open-faced diamond for a special mark, a diamond with a cross for a regulatory mark, and a rectangle for an information or direction mark.
