nope.lysozymes are found in lysosomal granules of phagocytic cells.it hydrolyzes the bacterial cell wall and cause it to be sensitive to osmotic damage.
Now whether lyzozymes are found in body secretions is something I find controversial.At one point they are mentioning it is found in there,but they are not marking it as the right answer.
any further information is appreciated plz.

tears contain lysozymes, and the lacrimal glad is a secretory gland. so i would pick C.
