Solution
The correct option is C Peptidases
Most of the enzymes are proteins. Proteins are biological macromolecules made up of amino acids joined together by peptide bonds.
Peptidases are enzymes, which cleave or break peptide bonds. The action of peptidase enzymes will cleave or break peptide bonds, thus breaking the primary structure of enzymes or digestion of enzyme. Hence, the correct answer is C.
