A Correct answer
Explanation

External JavaScript files should contain only pure JavaScript code without any HTML markup. The tag is an HTML element that belongs only in the HTML document that references the external file. Including <script> tags in an external .js file would cause syntax errors because the browser expects JavaScript, not HTML.
