Correct Answer: Hydrolytic enzymes


Solution : The correct option is hydrolytic enzymes

Hydrolytic enzymes, or enzymes that break down molecules through the addition of water to a chemical reaction called hydrolysis, are found in lysosomes. The disintegration of substances in lysosomes facilitates waste product removal, maintenance of cellular homeostasis, and component recycling. Lysosomes contain a variety of enzymes, including lipases, glycosidases, proteases, phosphatases, and sulfatases.
