  2. BIsomerases
  3. CLyases
  4. DTransferases

Correct answer

D. Transferases

Step-by-step solution

Enzymes are proteinaceous compounds that accelerate a chemical reaction without changing its direction. Based on types of reaction, they catalyze the enzymes are of the following six types: (i) Oxidoreductase-transfer of H and O atoms or electrons from one substance to another, e.g., Dehydrogenase, oxidase, catalase. (ii) Transferases-transfer of a functional group from one substance, e.g., Phosphorylase, kinase. (iii) Hydrolases-hydrolysis of the substrate e.g., Lipase, amylase, peptidase, protease, etc. (iv) Lyas
