  • D.is a program that appears to execute a source program as if it were machine language.

Answer: B

Correct answer: a program that automate the translation of assembly language into machine language

An assembler reads assembly language - mnemonic operation codes and symbolic addresses - and translates it into machine code, resolving the labels to addresses as it goes. Loading the result into memory is the loader’s job, and translating a high-level language is the compiler’s.
