Kinetic energy is not a conserved quantity according to the laws of physics. It can be transferred from one object to another or to other forms of energy, but the total amount of kinetic energy in a system is not necessarily conserved. The other options listed (electric charge, nucleon number, angular momentum, and linear momentum) are all conserved quantities in various physical processes.
