D Correct answer
Explanation

'It is anticipated' is correct because it uses the anticipatory 'it' structure with a passive verb, which is standard for formal predictions. 'They are anticipated' has no clear subject, 'In anticipation' is a fragment, and 'Anticipating' would need a clear subject performing the action.
