D Correct answer
Explanation

A tag is considered empty only if it has no body content. Option D contains a scriptlet (<%=...%>) which produces output, giving it body content. Options A, B, and C are truly empty - A uses self-closing syntax, B has no content between tags, and C uses jsp:attribute for setting attributes.
