Answer: B. Potato

Step-by-step explanation:

The catalase is an enzyme which can be seen in all living organisms which are exposed to the action of oxygen. It's function is to catalyze the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. This enzyme is protective against the oxidative damage caused to the cells of the organisms.

The large concentration of catalase can be seen in potatoes.
