Solution

The activities that predominantly use slow-twitch muscle fibers are "walking and jogging". These types of activities require endurance, which is a characteristic of slow-twitch muscle fibers. These fibers are designed for long duration and lower intensity activities, such as walking and jogging. They are not designed for quick, explosive movements like shot-putting, sprinting, squats, push-ups, weight training, or racket sports.
