Right answer is (c) Papain

Best explanation: The enzymes used to construct oligosaccharides such as glucose, fructose or galactose residues are dextransucrase, levansucrase, cyclomaltodextrin glucanotransferase and β-galactosidase. Papain is a protease obtained from papaya and is used in meat tenderization.
