Solution
The correct option is C Carboxydismutase Carboxy dismutase is a dimerizing carboxylase enzyme that catalyses the addition of carbon dioxide to D-ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate and the hydrolysis of the addition product to two molecules of 3-D-phosphoglyceric acid, a key reaction in the fixation of carbon dioxide in the photosynthesis process.
