Hope I helped you!

P.S.

Could you mark me brainliest?  Thanks!

The correct answer is Self / Contained /Underwater/ Breathing/Apparatus

Explanation:

As explained in the excerpt presented an acronym is a word that is formed by using the first letter or letters of other words and that becomes a word by itself. Int he case of the word "Scuba" this word is used to describe a type of diving in which divers use a system to breathe underwater which allows them to dive for a longer time without going to the surface. But besides this, the word "Scuba" is an acronym as it means Self-Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus which describes the type of system used in this kind of diving. Therefore in this word, S stands for Self; C stands for Contained; U for Underwater; B for Breathing and A for Apparatus which creates the word "Scuba".
