16. Firefighters often apply a hose stream to the side of a

by an exposed surface to cause ignition and create a
separate blaze.

be plugged into a single outlet. What would this be

wires to overheat or a short circuit to occur, thus causing a
fire within the partition.

to poor communication among firefighters. If a direction is
not fully comprehended or clearly heard, it is better to
