Solution
The correct option is B Aldolase Transaldolase catalyzes the reversible condensation of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate with dihydroxyacetone phosphate and obtains fructose 1,6-bisphosphate. Conversion of frusctose 6 phosphate into erythrose 4 phosphase is catalyzed by transketolase. Phosphatase serves in removal of phosphate group from its substrate by hydrolysis. Hexokinase phosphorylate hexose sugar into hexose phosphate. Correct answer is B.
