Answer: D. Primase

Explanation:

Primase is the enzyme that synthesizes RNA primers, oligonucleotides that are complementarily bound to a nucleic acid polymer. Primase is required because DNA polymerases cannot initiate polymer synthesis on single-stranded DNA templates; they can only elongate from the 3′-hydroxyl of a primer.

Hope it helps
