What type of suit can provide additional protection from hypothermia?

  1. Dry suit

  2. Space suit

  3. Evening suit

  4. Bathing suit

The correct answer is: Dry suit

A dry suit is made of waterproof material and is designed to keep the wearer dry and warm in cold water, making it the best option for protecting against hypothermia. A space suit is designed for protection in outer space and is not suitable for use in cold water. An evening suit and bathing suit do not provide any additional protection against hypothermia and are not suitable for use in cold water.
