The fermentation ability of Yeast is primarily due to the enzyme complex known as:

  1. A
    Amylase
  2. B
    Zymase
  3. C
    Invertase
  4. D
    Galactase

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

The fermentation of glucose into ethanol and carbon dioxide by yeast is catalyzed by an enzyme complex called zymase. While other enzymes like invertase help break complex sugars down into simple sugars, it is zymase that directly carries out the primary alcoholic fermentation pathway.
