Options

  1. Aprotease
  2. Bamylase
  3. Chydrolases
  4. Dperoxidase

Correct answer

C. hydrolases

Step-by-step solution

Hydrolases are hydrolytic enzymes, which catalyse the hydrolysis reaction by including water to break the bond and hydrolyse it. Lysosomes are the reservoirs of acid hydrolases showing optimum activity a pH 5.0 maintained within the lysosome. These include proteases. nucleases, glycosidases, lipase etc. Related Theory Hydrolases are enzymes that catalyse the cleavage of a covalent bond using water. Types of hydrolases include esterase, such as phosphatases, that act on ester bonds, and proteases or peptidases that
