"A tragic hero is a literary character who makes a judgment error that inevitably leads to his/her own destruction." http://www.bisd303.org/cms/lib3/WA01001636/Centricity/Domain/593/10th%20english%20Fall/C%20-%20The%20Tragic%20Play/Antigone.Medea/Definition%20of%20Tragic%20Hero.pdf

With this definition and the source that I found it from, I think it is safe to say that you can eliminate option(s) A and C, along with B, which means that D must be the answer because it is the closest matching option to the definition that is above. :)
