Correct answer: Using the “tel” parameter within the link tag.
Why this is the answer
To make a phone number clickable on a website, you use the "tel" parameter within an anchor (link) tag. The correct format is <a href="tel:+1-555-555-5555"Call Us</a. When a user clicks this link on a mobile device, it will prompt them to call the specified number. On a desktop, it might open a softphone application. The "phone" and "call" parameters are not standard or recognized protocols for this purpose; "tel" is the established and correct method for initiating phone calls via hyperlinks.
