Solution

The correct option is A Isoenzyme
Isoenzymes are enzymes that catalyze identical chemical reactions but are composed of different amino acid sequences. They are sometimes referred to as isozymes. Isoenzymes are produced by different genes. They occur in many tissues throughout the body and are important for different developmental and metabolic processes. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) are examples of isoenzymes.
