Respuesta :

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

The calendar is divided into two eras-- BC (Before Christ) and AD (Anno Domini). Anno Domini  is the term derived from Latin which means 'in the yeaar of our Lord.' The calendar is recognised based on the birth of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

Thus AD 1 or year 1 on the calendar marks the approximate date of the birth of Jesus Christ. Therefore, the correct option is D.

Answer:

D: The approximate date of the birth of Jesus Christ.
