  Zoning

The correct answer is subdivision regulation.

Zoning, deed restrictions, and building codes are all examples of regulations that fall under police power as they govern land use, property restrictions, and construction standards. However, subdivision regulation specifically deals with the division of land into smaller lots for development purposes, which is not directly related to the health, safety, and welfare concerns addressed by police power.

Zoning rules and regulations, traffic regulations, fire codes, and other safety laws are all examples of the government's right to exercise its police power over real estate ownership. Police power refers to the government's authority to enact and enforce laws and regulations for the purpose of protecting the health, safety, and welfare of its citizens. In the context of real estate ownership, this includes the ability to regulate land use, ensure compliance with building codes, and establish safety standards. Taxation, eminent domain, and escheat are different rights of the government that are not directly related to the enforcement of laws and regulations for real estate ownership.
