The correct answer is: A wide range including firefighters, utility workers, road crews, and many professionals and laborers

A variety of workers contribute to emergency response activities, not just law enforcement personnel (A) or medical doctors and nurses (B) exclusively. While they do play important roles, emergency response also includes a wide range of professionals and laborers, such as firefighters, utility workers, and road crews (C). And while military personnel (D) may sometimes be called upon to assist with emergency response, they are not the only type of worker involved in these activities.
