A deficiency of lactase - an enzyme produced in your small intestine - is usually responsible for lactose deficiency leads to symptoms after we eat dairy foods-So- the correct option is -apos-Deficiency of lactase enzyme is associated with intolerance of milk-apos-

Lactose concentration (% w/v)	15	15	15	15	15	15
Concentration of enzyme sample(% v/v)	0	5	10	15	20	25
Reaction rate $μ$ mole glucose $s e c^{- 1} m L^{- 1}$	0	25	50	75	100	125

Lactose concentration (% w/v)	0	5	15	20	25	30
Concentration of enzyme sample(% v/v)	5	5	5	5	5	5
Reaction rate $μ$ mole glucose $s e c^{- 1} m L^{- 1}$	0	15	25	35	40	40

A deficiency of lactase - an enzyme produced in your small intestine - is usually responsible for lactose deficiency leads to symptoms after we eat dairy foods.So, the correct option is 'Deficiency of lactase enzyme is associated with intolerance of milk.'
