Unfortunatelly I don't have a very good explanation. Between lysyl oxidase and prolyl hydroxilase I think the lack of the 1st one would cause more damage to both collagen and elastin because "elastin contains only a little hydroxyproline"(Lippincott's illustrated review of bichem) so I guess it needs only "a little" prolyl hydroxilase. Both of collagen and elastin definately need lysyl oxidase.
So, it's like choosing the answer that is "more" right, I guess.
