The correct answer is c. Acts of war.<br /><br />The perils clause in a marine insurance contract typically covers a wide range of risks and perils that may occur during the transportation of goods by sea. These perils can include natural events such as storms, as well as human-made events such as acts of war.<br /><br />Option a, jettison of the cargo during a storm, would typically be covered under the perils clause as it is a natural event that can occur during transportation by sea.<br /><br />Option b, explosion, could also be covered under the perils clause, depending on the specific terms of the contract.<br /><br />Option d, pilferage, refers to the theft or loss of goods, which may or may not be covered under the perils clause, depending on the specific terms of the contract.<br /><br />Therefore, the correct answer is c. Acts of war.
