Solution
The correct option is C Proteases
A protease (also called peptidase or proteinase) is any enzyme that performs proteolysis, that is, begins protein catabolism by hydrolysis of the peptide bonds that link amino acids together in the polypeptide chain forming the protein. Proteases may be classified by the optimal pH in which they are active: acid proteases or neutral proteases or basic proteases.
