Answer 1

Correct answer is (c) <sup>

Easiest explanation: There are a few elements that do not have any words between an opening and closing tag. They are known as empty elements. An empty element usually has only one tag. Before the closing angled bracket of an empty element, there will often be a space and a forward slash.
