visualization capabilities. The materials engineers inform you that there is a 5% chance that
condensation from breathing may cause the screen to become unreadable, but that an anti-
fogging film may be used if that issue arises during testing. Which risk mitigation technique
should you choose? - CORRECT ANSWER -· Control
