Solution

The correct option is A Dehydrogenase
  • Dehydrogenases catalyze dehydrogenation reactions which involve the addition or removal of electrons. The addition or removal of electrons will lead to the reduction or oxidation of substrates. Dehydrogenases are a type of oxidoreductase.
  • Hydrolases are enzymes that catalyze the cleavage of a covalent bond using water. Some of the important hydrolases include amylases, sucrase, lactase, maltase, protease, esterase, etc.

So, the correct answer is option A.
