🔍 Key Concepts

• Class B fires (flammable liquids and grease) in galleys • How ventilation and range hoods can spread flame and heat • Differences between primary fire danger and secondary consequences (like food contamination or stability)

💭 Think About

• In a galley, what fuel is most likely to catch and rapidly spread—solid cargo, liquid fuel, or grease/oil? • How does the design of a range hood and its ducting affect the way a fire can travel beyond the immediate stove area? • Which option describes a danger that can quickly turn a small, local fire into a large shipboard fire?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice directly involves ventilation or ducting that can carry flames and hot gases away from the galley. • Ask which concern is immediately life-safety critical, not just a long‑term or secondary issue. • Check which answer deals specifically with grease or oil behavior in a galley environment.
