The Medical Department Representative (MDR) may be involved in ensuring the health and safety of the crew, but they do not have direct responsibility for the ship's water supply. The Damage Control Officer (DCO) is responsible for managing and responding to damage control situations, not specifically for potable water.Rate this question:

Which security classification could reasonably be expected to cause serious damage to national security if unauthorized disclosure occurs?
- A.
Top secret
- B.
Secret

Correct Answer
B. SecretExplanation
The security classification that could reasonably be expected to cause serious damage to national security if unauthorized disclosure occurs is "Secret."

While "Confidential" is also a classification level, it is generally considered to be of lesser importance and the potential damage caused by its unauthorized disclosure is not as severe. "Top secret" is the highest level of classification, but the question asks for the classification that could reasonably be expected to cause serious damage, implying that "Secret" is the correct answer.Rate this question:
