Explanation

Option A is correct because an interpreter processes the source code sequentially, converting and executing it line by line as the program runs. Option B incorrectly describes a system model, not an interpreter. Option C confuses an interpreter with a compiled language known for efficiency. Option D is incorrect since option A accurately defines an interpreter.
