Actually a substrate is a reactant. It undergoes a chemical reaction to yield a product. The difference is that a catalyst acts upon it to increment the rate of the reaction (by reducing the activation energy required).

Reactant
It acts as a reactant. In a chemical reaction A substrate is a molecule that is reacted on by enzymes.
D. substrate (a specific reactant acted upon by an enzyme is called the enzyme's substrate.)
both substrate and competitive inhibitor
If the reactant is affected by an enzyme, it then referred to as a SUBSTRATE.
Generally in an enzyme-catalyzed reaction, the reactant is called the substrate, which in association with the enzyme forms the product.
