Solution
The correct option is C Permease
Enzymes facilitating transport across the cell membrane is permease.
Permeases are the transport proteins present in the cell membrane or a class of transmembrane proteins.
Its main function is to allow the diffusion of a specific molecule or ions into or out of the cell in the direction of a concentration gradient (facilitated diffusion).
