Answer:

C. counter controlled loop

Step-by-step explanation:

A counter controlled loop, is a loop that repeats a specific number of times. If it is known how many times a loop must repeat or perform a certain task, it is a count controlled loop (for loop).

- It must initialize a counter variable to a starting value.

- It must test the counter variable by comparing it to a maximum value. When the counter variable reaches its maximum value, the loop terminates.

- It must update the counter variable during each iteration. This is usually done by incrementing the variable.
