Potential K- strategists include humans.

K- strategist:

The term "K-selected" or "K-strategist" refers to species whose populations vary at or close to the carrying capacity (K) of the ecosystem in which they live. Compared to r-selected species, K-strategist species have remarkably constant populations and generate relatively few offspring, but those offspring typically grow to be rather big. Lengthy gestation durations of many weeks, slow development (and hence prolonged maternal attention), and long longer lifespans are traits of K-selected species. Additionally, they typically live in ecological groups that are generally stable, including premature or climax forests.

R-strategist:

They are creatures that have high reproduction rates followed by high death rates, resulting in populations with wildly variable numbers, according to the concept of r-selected species (or r-strategist). This term is based on the concept of "r," a variable in the ecology of animal populations that denotes a species' maximal reproductive potential. The populations of r-selected species will be small outside of the mating season. R-selected organisms begin to generate a lot of progeny as soon as reproduction begins. 

Therefore it is concluded that the final choice is option C, i.e., humans.

joja [24]
Hello, our reflexes are governed by the spinal cord since these actions happen quickly thus needing to bypass the brain. The other functions, meanwhile, are controlled by the brain itself, with motor skills and involuntary functions such as respiration being controlled by different parts of the brain.

Finger [1]

Answer:

An enzyme whose activity is controlled by allosteric regulation.

Explanation:

Enzymes are proteins that<em> accelerate</em> chemical reactions within the cell. Enzymes bind to the substrate in the active site, catalyzes the reaction, for example the breakdown of the binding molecule, and release the product or products.

The enzyme activity need to be regulated. One of the mechanisms by which this occurs involves effector molecules, usually small molecules which bind to the regulatory site, called allosteric site. The binding to effector molecules may activate or inhibit the enzyme activity, consequently increasing or decreasing the rate of the reaction.  

This mechanism of enzyme control is called allosteric regulation.

The description of the protein isolated fits with this features,  an enzyme whose activity is controlled by allosteric regulation.
