Answer:

D. What is your religion?

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe the answer would be D because this is the only question out of the options that could cause bias from the employer. Let's compare this to the other options.

For option A, knowing your address could be crucial information for the employer/company, and shouldn't cause bias or a reason for the employer to not agree.

For option B, knowing your job skills is also crucial information for the employer to know if you are fit for the job.

For option C, knowing your job history is similar to option B...the employer may need to know this information to know if you are fit for the job/if you have experience in this area of work.

Lastly for option D, knowing your religion should not be crucial information for an employer. This would violate laws aimed at achieving equal employment opportunities because this leaves room for the employer to use bias based on his/her religion.
