274. Which knot in illustration D030DG below represents a stopper hitch?

Knot N is the correct answer because it demonstrates a friction hitch used to secure a line by wrapping around another line and taking the strain. A stopper hitch is characterized by multiple tight wraps around a loaded line to control movement or transfer load, a configuration clearly depicted in illustration N. The other options illustrate different knot types or configurations that do not fulfill the function of a stopper hitch.
