C Correct answer
Explanation

An assembler converts assembly language (mnemonic instructions like MOV, ADD) to machine language (binary code the CPU executes). Compilers translate high-level languages to machine code, interpreters execute high-level code directly, and comparators compare data files. The assembler specifically handles assembly-to-machine translation.
