Responder

resposta correta é a opção d) Possibilidade.

A palavra "also" no contexto da frase indica que há uma possibilidade adicional de ocorrerem acidentes com os barcos-tartarugas, além do bloqueio da visibilidade causado pelos navios maiores. Portanto, a palavra "also" expressa a possibilidade de que o erro humano do piloto do barco-tartaruga possa levar a acidentes indesejados e inesperados.
