Solution

The correct option is B Kinases
Cyclins are among the most important core cell cycle regulators. Along with kinases, they drive the events of cell cycle. Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) trigger the transition from G1 to S phase and from G2 to M phase by phosphorylating distinct sets of substrates. Thus, kinases are the enzymes necessary for cell division.

Nitrogenases are oxidoreductase enzymes responsible for the reduction of nitrogen to ammonia.

Catalases and peroxidases are also oxidoreductase enzymes which catalyze the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide.
