The correct code to make a new instance of an object having the same class with a constructor having no arguments is by invoking the getClass() method on the object and then calling newInstance() on the returned Class object. Therefore, option D is the correct choice. Option A is incorrect because the newInstance() method cannot be called directly on the Object class. Option B is incorrect because it calls getClass() on the return value of newInstance() method, which will return the Class object of the new instance and not the instance itself. Option C is incorrect because it only returns the class of myObject and not a new instance.
