In illustration D038DG below, what part of the anchor is indicated by the letter "I"?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Look at how a stockless anchor is divided into major parts: shank, crown, and the broad digging surfaces on each side. • Know the difference between the fluke (the whole digging arm), the bill (only the extreme tip), and the palm or tripping palm (a smaller feature used to help break out the anchor). • Remember that a stock is a crosspiece normally fitted at right angles to the shank on certain older anchor types, not usually on a stockless anchor like this one.

💭 Think About

• On the illustration, does the label "I" point to the entire arm that buries in the bottom, just the very tip, or a smaller projection on the back side of that arm? • Which of the answer choices describes the main broad surface that actually holds in the ground versus a small aiding feature or a crossbar? • If you imagine the anchor set in the seabed, which named part would be doing most of the holding power where "I" is pointing?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm whether the anchor shown has any stock at all; if you don’t see a crossbar, rule that term out. • Identify where the bill would be: it should be only the sharp extreme point of the arm, not a large surface area. • Decide if "I" marks the whole digging arm or just a special small plate or projection; match that to the terms in the choices.
