Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Harley-Davidson is an example of a defender, which is a company that focuses on producing and marketing a few products in a narrowly defined market. They have a loyal customer base and maintain a stable position within their market, rather than seeking out new opportunities or taking risks like a prospector or opportunist. They also tend to have a more conservative approach to business and may not be as flexible or innovative as other types of companies, such as analyzers.
