Answer

Answer: (C) Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase
Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase is a template-independent DNA polymerase that adds nucleotides to the 3′ ends of a DNA molecule without needing a template. DNA Polymerase I and DNA polymerase III require a template, and RNA polymerase synthesizes RNA from a DNA template.
