Final answer:

In severe icing conditions, blockage of the ram air input and drain hole of the pitot system will cause a continuous deceleration on the airspeed indicator during a climb.


Explanation:

The indicated airspeed would show a continuous deceleration while climbing in severe icing conditions if both the ram air input and the drain hole of the pitot system are blocked. When power is applied and a climb is initiated, the blockage results in incorrect air pressure being sensed, causing the airspeed indicator to display a continuous decrease in speed as the aircraft climbs.
