Question

Why do sea divers wear armoured suits?

• A. To avoid allergy
• B. To protect themselves from marine animals
• C. To protect themselves against the high pressure in deep sea
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is C To protect themselves against the high pressure in deep sea

They wear armoured suits while diving, because deep below the ocean surface, an armoured suit protects the diver from being crushed by the immense pressure of water. As the pressure deep inside the ocean is over 100 times greater than the pressure at the surface.
