Solution

The correct option is C Iosenzymes
Different molecular forms of same enzyme are called as isozymes. The different forms respond differently to different environmental conditions and help in regulation of body metabolism. One common example is Lactate Dehydrogenase or LDH. This enzyme has five different known isoforms.
Coenzymes are the non protein part of some enzymes which help in catalysis of reactions.
Apoenzyme is the protein part of holoenzyme which catalyzes a biochemical reaction.
