Answer 1

Answer:

C. ഒന്നും രണ്ടും മൂന്നും

Search and Rescue (SAR) operations rely on three fundamental principles: LOOK, LISTEN, and FEEL. 'LOOK' involves visual assessment of the scene for dangers and victims. 'LISTEN' means gathering information from various sources like community members and official records to understand the situation and identify those at risk. 'FEEL' relates to having a firm belief in the facts, the danger's severity, and one's own competence to respond effectively. While sniffer dogs are used, 'Smell' is not considered a core principle in the same way as the other three.
