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).
  • So, the correct answer is 'Permease'.
