Open in App
Solution
The correct option is A lipase
Adipocytes are cells that store fat. Adipose tissue is made up of cells called adipocytes. Fats are reserved food materials in the germinating seeds and adipocytes. Lipases are enzymes that hydrolyze the fats and release free fatty acids and glycerol. Thus, lipases are abundant in germinating seeds and adipocytes for providing nourishment.
Proteases are enzymes that hydrolyze protein molecules.
Nucleases are enzymes which are involved in the breaking of the phosphodiester bonds in nucleic acids.
Cellulase is an enzyme that helps in the breakdown of cellulose.
