Based on your reading of the following, what function can a quint serve at a four-story structure fire that a fire engine cannot? Some terms refer to the number of functions an apparatus can perform, so a quad can execute four functions and a quint can implement five. Quints are larger and rarer in the field. They are often confused with pump/engine apparatus that carry ladders or have mounted booms. The quint possesses a full load of hose, a water tank, a full-sized pump, and can carry personnel. The fifth function is that it includes a large aerial device.

A.) Quints can provide a continuous water supply.

B.) Quints can carry personnel.

C.) Quints can furnish an aerial ladder or elevated platform.

D.) Quints can supply hoses and pumps.
