Smoke sensors? More like 'smoke and mirrors'! I'm gonna go with the classic fire suppressant for this one.

Hold on, let me check my crystal ball... I'm feeling B) Fire Suppressant. After all, you can't have a fire if you don't have any fire to begin with!

Shake it like a Polaroid picture! Vibration alarms are definitely a preventative control, as they can detect potential equipment failures before they happen.

Hmm, I'm not so sure. Voltage regulators could also be considered a preventative control, as they help maintain stability and prevent power surges or brownouts.

I think the correct answer is B) Fire Suppressant. Preventative controls are designed to stop an incident from occurring, and fire suppressants are a great example of that.
