Which tag is used to insert a picture in a web page?

• A. <img src="linkofpicture" alt="nameofpicture" width="100" height="100">
• B. <image src="linkofpicture" alt="nameofpicture" width="100" height="100">
• C. <img href="linkofpicture" alt="nameofpicture" width="100" height="100">
• D. <pic src="linkofpicture" alt="nameofpicture" width="100" height="100">

Answer: (A)

In HTML, displaying a picture on a page uses the image element. The <img> tag is specifically designed to embed images, and you point to the image file with the src attribute while providing descriptive text with alt for accessibility; width and height can control how large it appears. The example that uses <img> with src="linkofpicture" and alt="nameofpicture" plus width and height correctly follows this pattern, making it the valid choice. The other options are not correct because a non-existent <image> tag is not used for embedding images in HTML, the correct tag uses src (not href), and <pic> isn’t a standard HTML tag for images.
