Solution

The correct option is A To decrease the buoyant force.
A diving suit is designed in a way to protect the body from external pressure of water. As the depth increases, the pressure also increases. The suit also helps in maintaining the body-temperature of the diver and facilitates oxygen supply for breathing. The buoyant force does not decrease by the use of suit rather it increases marginally due to added volume of the suit.
