Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Parentheses are used to enclose additional information that is not essential to the main meaning of the sentence. In the second option, the birth - death years (1879 - 1955) are correctly placed within parentheses as they are supplementary information about Albert Einstein. The other options either misplace the parentheses (e.g., first option where parentheses are around the achievements instead of the non - essential birth - death years) or have incorrect punctuation (e.g., third option has an extra space before the opening parenthesis).

Answer:

Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955) is remembered for his Theory of Relativity, Photoelectric Effect, and lots more.
