a. Redwood trees
Explanation: K-selected species tend to be large, long-lived, mature late, and produce relatively few offspring with higher investment per offspring. Redwood trees fit this pattern. Fruit flies, algae, and grasshoppers are r-selected (short-lived, rapid reproduction, many offspring).
