🔍 Key Concepts

• Behavior of heat and smoke in an enclosed space (where do they collect first?) • Air quality at different heights in a burning compartment • Effects of heat, smoke, and toxic gases on a firefighting team

💭 Think About

• Think about where the cleanest, coolest air will usually be found inside a closed, burning room. • Consider what happens to hot gases, smoke, and steam as they build up near the ceiling. • Ask yourself which option relates most directly to protecting the hose team’s bodies and ability to keep working.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify what direction heat and smoke naturally travel in a space. • Consider which choice best protects both breathing and exposure to heat. • Eliminate any answer that only focuses on convenience or maneuvering rather than safety in a fire.
