Answer:

All family members on board the boat

Explanation:

As you can be overtaken by the water, even strong swimmers could need to be rescued or perhaps even drown. A life jacket can help you save your life! Everyone should wear a life jacket whenever they are near, on, or in the water, whether they are wading, swimming, fishing, boating, or doing any other water-related activity.

Answer:

B. All non-swimmers on board the boat.

Explanation:

A life jacket is a safety material that guides against sinking of the user in water body. Its major use is to avoid sinking by supporting the floating ability of the user on the surface of water (e.g river, sea, ocean etc).

Thus, Deena's family should ensure that all non-swimmers on board the boat make use of the jacket in case of accident. Since most swimmers have the capacity to float on the surface of water, they mostly can support themselves on water.
