Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Transitional phase
1. The transitional phase begins after the disaster subsides and starts rehabilitation work.
2. Its activities include clearing debris, restoring water supply, repairing roads and rehabilitating victims.
3. So the transitional phase is correct.
4. Rule out the emergency phase: that is about immediate rescue and first aid, not debris clearing and rehabilitation.
