D Correct answer
Explanation

The tag is the most portable PHP delimiter because it is XML-compliant and works in XHTML documents. Short tags like ?> depend on php.ini configuration and may not work in all environments. The tag format is verbose and rarely used. ASP-style tags <% %> are deprecated and removed in PHP 8. Using <?php ensures your code works across different server configurations and XML-based document types.
