Explanation:

First Question (about Gobekli Tepe makers)

The question is about the lifestyle of the makers of Gobekli Tepe. Archaeological evidence shows that Gobekli Tepe was built by hunter - gatherers, not agriculturalists. Pastoralists rely on herding, and fishermen focus on fishing, but the evidence points to hunter - gatherers.

Gobekli Tepe is dated to around 11,600 years ago, and the Egyptian pyramids are much younger (around 4,500 - 5,000 years ago). So Gobekli Tepe is about twice as old as the pyramids, and radiocarbon dating confirms its age going back to 11,600 years ago.

Answer:

C. Hunter - gatherers
