Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The term "oxidoreductases" indicates that these enzymes facilitate oxidation-reduction reactions, which involve the transfer of electrons from one substrate to another. In this process, one substrate loses electrons (a.k.a. undergoes oxidation), while the other substrate gains electrons (a.k.a. undergoes reduction). Therefore, option B is the correct answer. The other enzyme types listed do not necessarily involve electron transfer reactions.
