Solution

The correct option is C Aldolase
The enzyme fructose 1, 6-bisphosphate aldolase, often called aldolase, catalyzes a reversible aldol condensation reaction. Fructose 1, 6-bisphosphate is cleaved to yield two different triose phosphates, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate, an aldose and dihydroxyacetone phosphate, a ketose. Aldolase is a glycolytic enzyme, rest of the enzymes catalyze some or the other reactions of the Krebs cycle.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
