Solution

The correct option is B Aldolase
Glycolysis

This is the fourth stage in glycolysis.

Dihydroxyacetone-3-phosphate (DHAP) and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (the two triose phosphates) are synthesised by the cleavage of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate molecules.

This reaction is catalysed by the enzyme aldolase.

Final answer: (A) Aldolase
