Solution

The correct option is B Lyases
Lyases is an enzyme which catalyses the joining of specified molecules or groups by a double bond. Lyases catalyze reactions where functional groups are added to break double bonds in molecules or the reverse where double bonds are formed by the removal of functional groups. So, the correct answer is option B.
