Solution

The correct option is C Cellulase and pectinase
Plant cells are surrounded with a cellulosic cell wall. Between adjacent plant cells is present middle lamella. The middle lamella is made up of calcium and pectin. Hence, plant cells of a tissue are separated from each other with the help of cellulase and pectinase enzymes. These enzymes are commercially used in clearing of fruit juices to dissolve plant fibres.
