Solution

The correct option is C Ribozyme
Enzymes are protein molecules - long chains of amino acid residues. Deoxyribonuclease, lysozyme and ligase are proteinaceous enzymes.
Ribozymes (ribonucleic acid enzymes) are RNA molecules that are capable of catalyzing specific biochemical reactions, including RNA splicing in gene expression, similar to the action of protein enzymes.
