Solution

The correct option is C Hydrolases
Hydrolases are the hydrolytic enzymes which are active at low pH. These enzymes are present in the lysosomes and are called as acid hydrolases. A low pH is actively maintained in the lysosomes with the help of proton pump present in the lysosomal membrane which actively pumps protons into the lysosomes.
