Amylase is an enzyme that converts starch into maltose disaccharides.
Lactase degrades lactose to produce galactose and glucose.
Maltase converts maltose into glucose monomers.

Sucrose is broken down by invertase into fructose and glucose.
As a result, the correct response is 'A-amylase, B-lactase, C-maltase, D-invertase.'
