Answer: D
Option A is incorrect because filter expression can be used with Scan operations to filter the results returned by the scan operation. It cannot be used to make GetItem operations more efficient.
Option B is incorrect because Pagination is used with Scan operations to divide the result set of the Scan operation into pages. It cannot be used to make GetItem operations more efficient.
Option C is incorrect because Parallel Scans allows multi-threaded applications to perform Scan operations quicker. It cannot be used to make GetItem operations more efficient.
Option D is CORRECT because Projection Expressions can be used to limit the attributes returned by the GetItem operation and thus reduce the size of the read operation.
