Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Lysozymes are enzymes that break down the bacterial cell wall, and they are found in the mucus secreted by cells lining the body's interior tubes and cavities. Therefore, option D is the correct answer. The other options are not correct because peroxidases are enzymes that break down hydrogen peroxide, ATPases are enzymes that hydrolyze ATP, and neither of them are found in mucus. Acid is not an enzyme, and therefore, option B is incorrect. Lastly, proteins are a broad category of molecules and lysozymes are just one type of protein, so option A is also incorrect.
